PITTSBURGH - Maxime Talbot's pre-game nap Sunday afternoon included a wishful thought. The Pittsburgh Penguins checker was back in the lineup after missing three games with a foot injury and wanted to return with a splash.

"I was in bed this afternoon thinking, 'It would be nice to score a goal and make a big comeback,"' Talbot said. "You think about stuff like that and sometimes it happens. It's a great feeling."

Talbot, who was unable to stop smiling after the game, scored the winning goal 8:51 into the third period Sunday night to lift the Penguins to a 4-2 win over the Flyers, handing Pittsburgh a 2-0 lead in the Eastern Conference final.

"At the NHL level it's definitely my biggest goal," said Talbot. "I'm going to remember it for a long time."

His second career NHL playoff goal was a biggie, putting the Penguins just two wins away from their first trip

That was a Sweet goal by Talbot and an important one too. That was the climax of the seires Richards had the big breakaway goal that looked to take all the stuffing out of the Pens' But the Pens still held on and scored one of the sweatest goals of the playoffs. Way to go Pens
