Malkin Hat Trick Downs Hurricanes 7-4

Pittsburgh Penguins star Evgeni Malkin scored 3 goals and assisted one more to lead the Pens to a 7-4 win over the Carolina Hurricanes last night. Check out this Puck Daddy link, which has the video of Geno’s sick no-look backhand which was the dagger. That goal gave the Pens the first 2 goal lead of the game, which proved to be insurmountable. Sidney Crosby played well, with 1G, 1A.

By the way, Buffalo, check the box score:

Pittsburgh fighting – 5 min 18:41, M. Satan

Yes, Miroslav Satan fought in the big scrum towards the end of the game, after Ryan Bayda cross-checked Kris Letang in the head. Nobody knows Bayda, so the wheel of justice will probably land on 5 games.
