They did it again...

After Friday night's 1st game of the series, who would have thought Montreal would have tied the series heading back to Montreal for Game 3?

The rope-a-dope being employed by Jacques Martin and the Canadiens worked yet again today to get them a split against the Stanley Cup champs

After a tough first game where he was pulled, Jaroslav Halak came in and had yet another outstanding game to steal a game from the Penguins!

Halak has been great, but give full credit to the Canadiens for taking advantage of every mistake and opportunity they get from the Penguins

Looking at it from the Penguins point, I see a lot of similarities in this series from what we saw in the opening round against the Senators

It's evident that the Penguins players know they have a big edge in talent over the Canadiens and they're playing down to the competition...

Perfect example of this was the shift that produced Montreal's 3rd goal...Sidney Crosby with two bad turnovers and uncharacteristic laziness

The Pens are playing with fire by toying with the opposition...they should get past the Habs, but they better get rid of this habit and fast
