Last night was the perfect night for hockey fans because it featured everything that hockey fans could ever want.
Game 7. The Conference Finals. A trip to the Stanley Cup on the line. A team on a surprise run (Ottawa Senators) facing off with the defending champs (Pittsburgh Penguins). That was a great enough storyline to follow leading up to the game, but the game itself was a whole new animal.
It was a back and forth affair. The Penguins scored first, only to be matched by the Senators 20 seconds later. The Pens tacked on one more late in the third, but the Sens jumped right back with a goal of their own.
