Hossa, however, has been quiet throughout the first two rounds of the playoffs. Hossa was slow to start with the Penguins but had seemed to adjust to his new teammates before the end of the regular season. Hossa was acquired from Atlanta before the trade deadline and formed a triple threat with the already dangerous Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin. It was Hossa's second goal of the game, and for the new Penguin, it seemed to solidify him as a part of the team. Upon further review, Dupris' pass actually hit Rangers' defenseman Daniel Girardi's skate and slid into a perfect position for Hossa to hit the back of the net.A few inches to the left or right, and the pass may have missed Hossa altogether and ended up along the boards. In the eighth minute, the Penguins' captain Sidney Crosby brought the puck into the Rangers zone and passed the puck to Pascal Dupris.He then appeared to pass it to Marian Hossa, who put it through the five hole of Rangers' goalie Henry Lundqvist.

The team seemed to turn the afterburners on as they appeared to be faster than the older Rangers and playing with a renewed sense of purpose.   They also benefited from a bit of luck. The Pens kept the puck in their offensive zone for the majority of the 7:10 of overtime the two teams played. Luckily, a four-minute penalty on Chris Drury's high stick penalty returned the momentum to the Penguins.The Penguins came back on the ice after the third intermission with two and a half minutes left in their power play and showed that their young legs could keep pumping into overtime. For Marian Hossa  and the Pittsburgh Penguins, it was both.After relinquishing a two-goal lead in the third period the Penguins looked like they may be packing their bags to play Game Six tomorrow night in New York. Sports can be a matter of inches It can also be a matter of luck.
