The Pittsburgh Penguins traveled down to Tampa, Florida for their second matchup of the season against the Lightning. The Penguins have won the last five games between the two clubs and looked to continue that streak tonight. Tampa wasted no time getting their first goal. Tampa led 1-0 at the end of the 1st period thanks to a goal from Cirelli. Off the opening faceoff in the 2nd period, Tampa gained control and rushed into the zone. The puck went in the net, but did not count: a coach’s challenge by Pittsburgh revealed that the play was offside. Moments later, Tampa scored, taking a 2-0 lead courtesy of Kucherov. The Penguins had two power-play opportunities in the middle period. but were not able to convert on either. Jeannot added to the Bolts’ lead, making it 3-0 two-thirds of the way through the contest. Within the last minute of regulation, the puck took a weird bounce behind the net, catching a few of the Lightning out of position. Jake Guentzel shot the puck, got through a defender, and went past the goal line. This tally extended Guentzel’s point streak to 7 games. The final score was 3-1 in favor of Tampa.

Let’s go penguins
This isn’t funny anymore we’re wasting hall of famers waning years
guentzel adds a point??? WOW ?!??!? AMAZING…
Rust being evaluated for another injury is just salt in the wound.
Can't imagine what this closed-door meeting could possibly yield.
Pens need another Hornqvist they have no one in front of the net with the guts to do it.
Remind me again why they got Karlsson
0/4 on the power play again, shocker
Wow I couldn't even watch the Third period. Giveaways giving up the Blue Line way too easily. This team is slow and soft. Does anybody on this team actually check the guy with the puck on the other team?
Time for new coaches.
Damn it, I could tell by the title before I watched it that there wasn't much to celebrate for tonight 😥
Just plain frustrating at this point, it’s like they don’t wanna be there at times. 😔
This is getting ridiculous
Does Sully have something against Hinostroza?!
OK the first is almost over and I thought to score we had to be in there zone not ours
Pittsburgh point collecters.
Remind me again why they start Jarry….
Same result different night 😮
