Nhl Pittsburgh Penguins Greatest Games 2

FINALLY
Having to wait almost 2 years to get the 2009 cup win on DVD totally blew. I was watching it on Hulu and watching the highlights over and over again on Youtube as well as the celebration. Luckily game 7 is on this DVD and the celebration on the ice afterward is also included! We get an interview with Mario after the Game 1 SCF Blackhawks win (coming from behind, incredibly exciting) and another come from behind victory is included, game 6 vs. Philadelphia, with Max shushing the crowd (two interviews after that one, Fleury and Crosby). The picture quality of the games is even better than Volume One, and seeing Crosby raising the Cup is priceless. I love this set! LETS GO PENS!

not sure what is on disc 6 as the site does not mention--
overall a good set, but would have loved Mario's fist game against Boston where he scored on his
first shift!

WHERE'S MIKE LANGE???
I was so excited to finally get my hands on the greatest game in penguins history, the 1992 comeback win against the blackhawks in Game 1 of the SC FInals; this game was inexplicably left out of the original 10 Greatest Games edition. All 10 of those games had the original Mike Lange commentary overlaying the games, so my expectation was that this volume would have that as well. Not so. Instead, the Chicago Blackhawks (a team residing in the US) vs the Pittsburgh Penguins (another team residing in the US) game is overlayed with the announcers from Hockey Night in Canada. Absurd. This was a huge disappointment.
