The Columbus Blue Jackets gave up two third period goals and lost to the Pittsburgh Penguins by a final score of 3-2. An entertaining game from the opening draw was spoiled by a controversial call in the dying minutes of the game, but we’ll get to that later.

1st Period
Right from puck drop, the energy was high. Both teams never seem to have any trouble getting up for games against each other. There were good chances for each team about 4 minutes in, with each goalie making stops early.
