Edmonton 2 @ Pittsburgh 3 (OT)

After a complete break down in game 3 the penguins had their work cut out for them to try and not have the series turn around. Game 4 brought more defensive hockey, leading to a scoreless game well into the second period. Torres was able to sneak one past Fleury and things weren't looking positive for the Pens.

3rd period started with the Oilers in control and a 1-0 lead. However, Sid was not to be outdone on his home turf. He was able to float one over the shoulder of Roloson early. Mid way thru Sid banged home a loose puck in the crease, after Malkin was robbed stone cold on a breakaway.

Edmonton never quit, knowing anything can happen. After numerous attempts from the Pens to clear the zone, Skyora was left all alone in the hash marks and made no mistake. We were headed to another OT.

Much like this first this one barely got started as Malkin stole a draw in the Oilers end and quickly ripped one past Roloson for the win.

The Pens now wait to find out who they will face in the second round of the GUGHL playoffs.
