Analysis: Carl Hagelin finding his offensive game, and other postgame notes

OK, this Carl Hagelin empty-netter wasn’t quite as memorable as his last one.

Last June. In Nashville. Maybe you remember.

But even if it didn’t, you know, clinch the Stanley Cup, Hagelin’s goal capping the Penguins’ 5-2 win against the Rangers Sunday was another positive step as Hagelin looks to find his offensive form heading into the second half of the season.

He now has points in three consecutive games, with the goal and three assists over that span.

“I think his last 3-4 games have probably been his best all year,” Mike Sullivan said.
