"I think they had a real clear understanding of what was at stake and the way we wanted to play. While it wasn't perfect, I think they sent a message loud and clear." When Dan Bylsma was hired he promised the Pittsburgh Penguins were going to return to their aggressive style of play. He Lived up to that promise in last night's 5-4 victory over the Habs."We were playing aggressive and took advantage of some good chances. It was a pretty high tempo, and that's the way we want to play," said Sidney Crosby, whose quick pass across the slot set up Malkin's 26th goal. "We were reacting out there pretty well, but at the same time we still have a few kinks to work out."
The Canadiens told Alex Kovalev to stay home by Bob Gainy for 2 games that began with a 4-3 shootout loss in Washington on Wednesday night. Kovalev's situation will be talked to today by Bob Gainy, before the Canadiens play Ottawa on Saturday. Carey Price made 23 saves in the lose.

"We need to stop this from here on out. We've waited too long already."The Canadiens next game will be on Saturday against the Senators.
