Game 6, Penguins 4 - Senators 3 in 1 OT

After a grim 3-0 start, the Pittsburgh Penguins finally showed up in Ottawa and began playing hockey.

Pissant cheapshot artist Matt Cooke was the surprise impact player of the game with 2 goals. In a post-regulation interview Cooke mentioned that during the break before Round 2 begins he will moonlight as a jack o'lantern model.



What can I say? I don't like the guy. But he did his job, and really well, on Saturday night.

Geezer Bill Guerin scored the 3rd regulation goal to tie the game, determined to kick seriously righteous ass in what is probably his final season with the Pens.


This is not a handsome man, in say, a Henrik Lundqvist sense. But oh, how hot he is. I believe the term is jolie laide. I can relate.

Scrappy blue-eyed cutie-pie Pascal "Eyelashes" Dupuis, sporting the fastest-growing and furriest playoff beard of any Penguin, slapped in the game-winning goal in overtime, at which point he adjourned to the Millenium Falcon for his ride back to Pittsburgh with Han Solo.



Just say it aloud. "Pascal Dupuis." It starts with a smile and ends with a kiss. How do you not love this man?

Sidney Crosby, with a frankly shocking -2 on the game, continues to sport the saddest playoff whiskers of any NHL player.



Really, this line is just an excuse to post this picture, because, hello, this is hot.

Pens win, 4-3, and advance to Round 2, which means that you all now have to deal with periodic hockey posts for at least two more weeks. So too bad.

And if you missed tonight's Weekend Update on SNL, it was the funniest it's been in years. My neighbor must think I'm insane.
