Last night, Dena and I went to Buffalo to watch the Sabres take on the Penguins, which was televised on TSN. The Sabres, currently being the best team in the NHL, didn’t have much trouble last night. When Sid Crosby, Evgeni Malkin or (to a lesser extent) Jordan Staal weren’t on the ice, Pittsburgh didn’t have much hope of mustering anything offensively. Crosby’s first goal of the night was brilliant, though - Biron had left the tiniest opening available on the short side, and after a couple of nice dekes, he managed to go short side. It’s amazing to think that the average age of the combination of Crosby, Malkin and Staal is only 19. Also, Crosby and Staal are still technically of-age to play for Team Canada in the annual World Junior Tournament this December, but they likely won’t. The Penguins definitely have the potential to become a great team with those young stars of theirs. It makes me hope that Jim Balsillie moves the Penguins to Kitchener-Waterloo even more
