They’re reveling tonight over at Pensburgh, SBN’s Penguins blog. The occasion? How about Pittsburgh’s 7-4 blowout win over the Ottawa Senators in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference quarterfinals? The Sens are now in a 3-1 hole, and the Pens can move on to the second round with a win on home ice come Thursday.
Pittsburgh Reaction: Pens Just Too Much To Handle
If you ask those at Pensburgh, it shouldn’t be too difficult to do that. After all, the Pens have completely overwhelmed Ottawa in these last three games.
Too much offense, too much skill, too physical, too good. The Pittsburgh Penguins continue to overwhelm the Ottawa Senators and do so tonight from start to finish (with a few hiccups in between). It's clear that the Pens have too much firepower and are pretty much superior in all fashions to the Senators. Ottawa tried to muck, grind and do anything possible to stay close, but they just aren't in the Penguins class and about all observers realize it.

So now it's back to Pittsburgh. After Ottawa felt good about taking 1 of 2 in Pittsburgh, the Pens go ahead and take 2 of 2 in Ontario. It's not technically over yet, but the Sens would have to win three straight now. They've been outclassed at every point over the past three games and it's not likely to change.
Bring on the casket match, Thursday, because only one team is going to get buried.
