Penguins win 4-3 over Caps, clinch playoff spot
At least one Pittsburgh Team made the playoffs in a season that started in 2006.
The Penguins locked up a playoff berth for the first time in six years last night with a 4-3 win over the Washington Capitals, moving their season record to 44-23-10. Stud of the Future Sidney Crosby and the oft derided Michel Oullet each scored once, and Ryan Whitney added two more.
According to Mondesishouse.com, Penguins henchman Georges Laraque dropped gloves with the Caps’ Donald Brashear, in a moment I wish I’d seen because all the other good boxing matches are on pay-per-view these days.
