These were the practice lines for Ottawa:
Forwards

Foligno - McAmmond - Neil
Schubert - Bass - Lapointe
McGrattan - Winchester
Defence

Richardson
Goaltender
Gerber
Emery
Murray also plans to use top shut-down defensive tandem Chris Phillips and Anton Volchenkov against Evgeni Malkin's line.
Sid and Hossa might end up having a field day.

Pens lineup for Game 1:
Malone-Malkin-Sykora
Dupuis-Crosby-Hossa
Ruutu-Staal-Kennedy
Roberts-Talbot-Laraque
Gonchar-Orpik
Gill-Letang
Whitney-Scuderi-Sydor
Sydor, Whitney and Scuderi were each rotating reps. Therrien said the defensive scratch will be a game time decision.
I'm suprised Hall is getting the scratch over Kennedy. Kennedy has been invinsible almost every game since he came back from mono. I think he needs a break.

I just bought tickets to this game. I did this last year as well. I waited for the day before and any tickets that were on reserve, are now free to the public. I will be C5.

Pens dominate Game 1. Win 4-0.
Roberts with 2 Goals
Geno with 1 Goal and 2 Assists
Sykora with 1 Goal
Pens dominated without the Crosby line doing anything.
Fleury played well but the team defense held Ottawa to little scoring changes.

They have pretty much dominated this whole series except for 1.5 periods.

Lets go Pens!!!!

Pens dominated the 1st period. They needed to bury one of their scoring chances. Gerber is again keeping them in the game.

Wow. The Pens got lucky on Vermette's goal. It was distinct kicking motion. They need to convert on another one of their power plays. Need the next goal.

Destoyed is just a nicer way to say it.
