Battle 1 [Advantage-Crosby]

Well the first matchup in the playoffs did not disappoint until the 7th game. In Game 7, the Capitals were just outlasted by the Penguins, who won 6-2.  Personally, I thought this game would go down to the wire since all the other games have been so good. But looks like Sid [The Kid] Crosby and his boys came to play tonight. Crosby would score twice and assist on another. His final goal would come after he steals the puck from Ovechkin and beats two of his teammates for the 6-1 score. Alex [The Great] Ovechkin would be shut down tonight and I think that is what hinder his team from scoring and playing better [he did score 1 goal]. By no means is that his fault. We can't advice both superstars to the next level, but this year Crosby comes out on top. I really hope that there are more of these two in the playoffs to continue the rivalry they have. In this battle, Crosby scored 13 points while Ovechkin scores 14. But Crosby comes out with the main thing, and that is advance to the Eastern Conference Finals.

The Penguins will face the winner between the Bruins|'Canes, who is also in a Game 7.
