Penguins Clinch Playoff Berth

For the first time since the 2000-01 season, the Pittsburgh Penguins are going to the Stanley Cup playoffs! This makes me happy. Attending the Penguins-Capitals game last night and watching the Pens win also makes me happy. In January, the Capitals took a 4-0 lead before the Penguins came back to win 5-4. Last night, the Penguins only spotted the Caps two goals before scoring four consecutive goals and hanging on for a 4-3 win. Here are game summaries from the Post-Gazette and Washington Post. Still no comments on the Caps' blog On Frozen Blog about the game, although they have already started to talk about the off-season and next season.

There is a 100% chance that I’ll be writing more about the Penguins and the playoffs over the (hopefully) next few months.
