Pens Get Capped in Washington

by: The PensNation Staff

Penguins AT Capitals
2 5

There isn't much to say about yesterday's performance but horrible, now I'm not going to sit here and blame one guy for the loss. Ok maybe I will it has got to be the coach Dan Bylsma fire him now, just kidding but seriously is it me or since Bylsma came on has the team lacked any type of defense every team the Pens have played in the Disco Dan era has had a ton of phenomenal scoring opportunities. Back to the game at hand the Caps got on the board first with a goal from Ovechkin, but the Pens soon followed with a goal of their own from Mad Max Talbot. This was about as close as the Pens came to beating the Capitals, the game was over from the start the Penguins couldn't match the intensity of the Caps no matter how hard they had tried. There is no point into me writing a recap on this joke of a performance so check the highlights.



Sidney Crosby and Alex Ovechkin exchanged words
