With another goalie making his playoff debut in Matt Murray, the Pittsburgh Penguins defeated the New York Rangers 3-1 at Madison Square Garden to claim Game 3 of their Eastern Conference first-round matchup to take a 2-1 series lead.
The rookie Murray, who relieved first-time playoff starter Jeff Zatkoff after he allowed four goals in Game 2, made 16 saves on the night as he didn't see too much rubber. New York's 17 shots on an inexperienced goaltender in the playoffs just weren't enough.
Only five Rangers had more than one shot on goal, and three of them were defensemen.
