I confess, Tuesday night’s ugly 6-5 OT loss to the Bruins left me feeling angry and frustrated with our Penguins. You may have noticed when reading my game summary.
However, following last night’s come-from-in-front 6-3 skewering at the hands of the Sabres, I have a decidedly different emotional reaction. I mostly feel bad for our favorite team and the coaching staff.
Indeed, as the camera panned to Mike Sullivan at the end of the game, I felt a tug on my heartstrings. You could sense how troubled he is by the team’s unexpected malaise and how much he cares.
