The Penguins are ready to take on the Rangers in Game Four and lead the series 2-1! The Penguins have been playing a more complete game and Marc-Andre Fleury has earned two shutouts in the past two games. It was a full 60 minute game for the Penguins and were able to handle the times when the Rangers pressure them in the defensive zone. Fleury stood tall in the net and really stepped up his game. Sidney Crosby also had a great night as he broke through getting his first goal of the 2014 NHL playoffs. The only one that seems to having a problem was Olli Maatta. He has been struggling through this round and it seems to be due to his young age. Hopefully he takes it as a learning experience and learns from it. On the injury front, Brooks Orpik did skate with the team today. The Penguins have to keep this type of play up and not let up on the Rangers. Lets Go Pens!
