  2. We need more of this! Looked like the D stepped it up and more shots on goal/puck possession. Zucker has that fire in him, been enjoying seeing him give 110%. Malkin/Rust chem there was great. His reaction to Rust's heads up play and threading that pass. Then returning the favor for the OT winning goal. Let's GO!

  3. Oh I'm so happy!! But every game I say Blueger needs to get a goal, and I think I might be jinxing him…

  4. Still can't win in regulation . SMH . They put Kappy on waivers but keep that Diversity Hire Joseph ? No wonder nobody in that organization can put a winning team on the ice .

  5. Hopefully this win can get themselves out of their own heads, find some confidence and return to playing some good competitive hockey. This was a good effort. Defense played a little better in this one. Let's build on this win and get another. GO PENS GO!!

  6. I don't understand how their 2nd goal wasn't goalie interference. It was a little before the puck went in but that one guy was in the blue and touching Jarry from the time that scrum started.

  7. Great game. Was a thriller until the end, and great offensive looks on that first period. I'm hoping this is the start of a domino effect of winning Sad to hear about the AT&T Sportsnet news but I believe the Penguins can find their broadcasting home.
