The Pens were able to put some pucks in the net last Saturday (doesn't that seem like months ago?) Defensively, they held St Louis to just 22 shots. You would think that for them to win consistently, they need to hold teams to 30 shots or less each night. At least it would help keep Flower from going nuts due to seeing 40 shots every night.
The Oilers have managed to add some offense as well, notching nine goals in the past two games. They've also allowed the same number over the same period. Probably not what they're looking for.
The Oilers have played twice since the Pens last played, and they're in the middle of a seven game road trip. This is one that the Pens should win, even though the Oilers aren't bad so far this year.
One of my favorite players to hate, Sheldon Souray, plays for the Oilers. He has a nasty shot, and has a propensity to deliver borderline hits. Keep your head up, Geno!
Let's Go Pens!

I remember Souray going after Armstrong when he lit up Koivu I think it was. Dude is nasty and has a cannon from the blue line. Hopefully he'll lose his head again this time and take another game misconduct :)
