Penguins Vs. Lightning, Game 3: Pittsburgh Wins, 3-2, To Take 2-1 Series Lead

Gagne didn’t talk much about his health in his post-game comments other than to say that he finished the game and that he feels OK, but he did go into a lot of detail about what he thinks should happen to Kunitz as a result. Via TBO.com:

The referee may have seen what happened, but he certainly didn’t make a strong call on the ice. Despite the horrifying visual of Kunitz sticking his elbow right into Gagne’s head, the official only gave Kunitz a two-minute penalty for interference. That’s not exactly what most people were thinking he deserved.

The Penguins had a 2-0 lead in the first period of the game, but Martin St. Louis cut the lead to one when he scored a goal with less than five minutes left in the period.

With the exception of the second period, both teams put plenty of shots on net. The Pens finished with a slight advantage, 30-27, thanks in part to Tampa making just six in the second period.
