I confess, I didn’t see this coming. Not at all. Certainly not after our Penguins eviscerated Toronto on Tuesday night for their third win in a row and fourth in their last five to snatch first place in the ultra-tough Metropolitan Division.
Having claimed the top spot, maybe our guys were guilty of taking their collective feet off the gas pedal. How else do you explain losing to Toronto and Buffalo by a combined score of 9-2 and looking God-awful in the process?
Suddenly, it seems everything has gone south (or ‘sahth’ as we say in the ‘Burgh).
