2nd Period Live Blogging Continued

--Phone call. The TV has to be muted.

--The mute button is magic. Andy McDonald scores another goal. Without hearing commentary, I don't think that's a goal the Senators (and Ray Emery) should be giving up.

--Momentum switches fast in the playoffs; this game is by no means over. But you've got to love a goal that hushes a crowd that's already quiet.

--Talk about more switching of momentum. Heatley scores. Growl. I don't like natural goal scorers who are wingers. Particularly because my Penguins do not have them.

--If I'm Anaheim, I'm not happy Alfredsson and Heatley are on the board. If I'm Ottawa, I'm happy they're on the board. And by the way, Chris Pronger's absence is not coincidental when it comes to Heatley and Alfredsson finally getting untracked.

(Still, if Anaheim could somehow pull this out, even with Ottawa's big guys getting untracked, well, that would bode well. I would think.)

--End of the period festivities. Lots of grabbing and talking. And to that Ottawa buffoon bothering Scott Niedermayer, leave Scott Niedermayer alone. He's better than you. He's above you. Leave Scott Niedermayer alone.

--Eventually the players depart for their respective locker rooms. And Scott Niedermayer starts "talking." Sure, that's what he's doing. Did I not tell that Senator to let Scott Niedermayer be Scott Niedermayer? I mean. Really.

--Tied at 2 all after 2. Maybe I get overtime tonight? Pretty, pretty please?
