							<description><![CDATA[ <p>After bouncing the idea back a fourth for a week I've decided to out the site on hiatus for the time being while I try and figure out if I have time to run a daily blog anymore. As of now there is little time for me to keep up with the blogging duties this site requires as I have only seen at most 2 games since December 17th. If anyone is interested in picking up blogging duties for a little you can reach me at <a href="mailto:webmaster@pensnation.com">webmaster@pensnation.com</a>.</p> ]]></description>

<p>I didn't see the game so I don't know, all I heard was that it was bad. What can you expect starting a third string goalie fresh out of the AHL against an offense like that. Maybe next time kid.</p>

<p>I have no idea what happened in the game, the only thing I heard was that the Pens scored 3 goals in the third period to take the game. If someone could fill me in that would be spectacular, I'm going to have to setup the DVR to record these late games from now on. I did see that Fleury now has a broken finger and is questionable for Saturday's game.</p>

<p>The Penguins continue their road trip in Calgary tonight as the square off against the Flames. Game time is 9:30 being that the game is in western Canada. A few notes as of practice today, it appears that Caputi may be out of the lineup tonight no official word yet even though emptynetters is reporting that he will be out tonight with Talbot taking his place on the Malkin line. Also Penguins defenseman Brooks Orpik did a little light skating before practice this morning.</p>

<p>The Penguins went into Minnesota and didn't appear to lose a step from the previous game jumping out to an early 1-goal lead just 4 minutes in, but all was not had as the Wild resiliently bounced back on several occasions. After the Penguins took a 2-1 lead 1 minute into the second Martin Havlat whom has been a ghost in the wild lineup for the better part of this season thus far tied things up at 2 a piece. The Wild would go onto add another in the second before Sidney Crosby came to the rescue with his second goal of the night to tie it at 3, but all was lost when Latendresse netted the games final goal 6 minutes into the third followed by a 5 minute Wild power play as result of a stupid move on Gonchar's part to gain retaliation for a hit in the neutral zone.</p>

<p>After missing several games Sergei Gonchar took only 20 minutes to get himself reaquainted back into the Penguins lineup by scoring 2-goals on consecutive shifts. After scoring a no-call goal on the powerplay Gonch and a couple seconds later Gonchar tripped up Leaf Alexei Ponikarovsky which caused a penalty shot, but this was negated because after review it was shown that Gonchar's shot did in fact hit the post in back of the net and ricochet out. After serving his 2-minutes in the box Gonch came out to score his second and put the Penguins up 3-1, the final Penguins goal came from a nifty between the legs play by Sidney Crosby, it's kind of hard to explain so you will just have to watch the highlights.</p>
