Pens fall to the Reds for the third time...

The Pens put up one hell of a fight tonight, but unfortunately that wasn't enough. The Caps prevailed in an overtime shoot-out. Jordan Staal scored a fantastic goal in the closing minutes of the 3rd period to tie it three-all, but in the end Fleury's goaltending did the Penguins in. Letang and Crosby scored Pittsburgh's first 2 goals in the shoot-out, but Ovechkin, Semin & Knuble put the lid on it for the Reds. All-in-all it was an amazing playoff atmosphere game, nothing short of disappointing. These teams have one more regular season meeting in a couple of weeks on April 6th...will the Penguins finally beat them? Maybe in this case fourth time is a charm...
