The Penguins took game one of the Eastern Conference finals 3 to 2. I found this game boring to watch the Penguins quickly sprung out to a 2 goal lead and it never felt like the Canes had a chance to win this game even though we were only winning by one goal for half the game. It is fine by me if all the games in this series are boring as long as the Penguins come out with wins. That being said i would expect the rest of the series to be much more exciting and for this to be a hard fought series with the Penguins coming out victorious in 6 games.
Highlights of the game were Fleury looking like a world class goalie again after having a terrible series against the Capitals. And Miro Satan playing this entire game like he was shot out of a cannon, he was hitting people, backchecking, and he scored a ridiculous break away goal. On the negative side of things this was the worst game i saw from Kunitz in a Penguins uniform. At least during the Capitals series you could say even though Kunitz isn't showing up on the score board he is doing other things right like retrieving lose pucks for Crosby and laying out big hits, last night we didn't see anything from him.
