Penguins 5, Flyers 4: Close, but no cigar in Pittsburgh

The man who had just two assists in his past 16 games, which included a couple healthy scratches, broke out in a huge way when the Flyers needed it most on Sunday. Jordan Weal picked up two primary assists in the first period and added a power play goal late in the second period to nod things up at 3-3 heading to the third.

But not only was Weal effective in the box score, he looked like the player that the Flyers —and GM Ron Hextall— wanted from the Kings in that Vincent Lecavalier trade.
