" Marian Hossa scored in overtime to give the Penguins a 3-2 win over the New York Rangers today at Mellon Arena, clinching their second-round playoff series. They advance to the Eastern Conference final, where they will play cross-state rival Philadelphia.

Dates and times for the third round are pending, but Games 1 and 2 will be at Mellon Arena."

Great game by the Pens today, and a game that rounded out a (for the most part) exciting and hard-worked series against a formidable foe.

Now on to Philly. I know they beat us 5-3 in the season series, and we're 8-1 in the playoffs, but I think it's going to be a hard fought series that makes me nervous. The Penguins will be up to the task I believe but it won't be easy and I don't see the Penguins advancing to the Finals without at least five games played, more realistically six.
