Grade:  85/100.  Average tape quality.

 

Notes:  The Penguins pound rookie goalie Ed Belfour in their 4th straight home win, moving into a tie for first place in the Patrick Division.  This is a penalty-filled game, mostly on the part of the Blackhawks, as the first 2 periods see only 13 ½ minutes of full strength play.  Lemieux, Bourque and Cunneyworth each score 2 goals.

Thanks Trevor!
