Penguins Push Rangers to Brink of Elimination
Summary from United States, from articles in English
March 28, 2008 PITTSBURGH - The Islanders were the perfect foil for the Penguins and Sidney Crosby, who played in his first home game in more than two months. (article 9) Jarkko Ruutu had a goal and two assists, and Georges Laraque had a goal and an assist as the Atlantic Division-leading Penguins beat the Islanders 3-1 last night. (article 9) Evgeni Malkin also scored his 45th goal of the season as the Penguins won their sixth consecutive home game, extending their division lead to six points. (article 9) For nearly two minutes near the end of the second period Tuesday night, four Rangers were stuck on the ice, all spent, desperately trying to kill a penalty. (article 6) Fleury helped the Penguins kill off two key Rangers power plays in the final six minutes plus before Adam Hall scored into an empty net with 16.7 seconds remaining. (article 7) PITTSBURGH - The locker room was nearly silent Sunday afternoon, except for the sound of the players' temporary nametags being ripped from the Velcro tabs over their lockers and their equipment bags being heaved onto a cart. (article 5) The Rangers started to try to make sense of what had happened in their second straight loss in their Eastern Conference semifinal series against Pittsburgh. (article 5)
