Blue Jackets/Penguins Recap: Columbus wins in shootout to break long losing streak to Pittsburgh

Ryan Graves suffered a concussion last game and is out tonight, drawing John Ludvig back into the lineup. Alex Nedeljkovic gets his fourth game in a row in the net.

First period

The Penguins get the first power play and it’s a disaster. Kris Letang misplays the puck and drops back to defend, giving up a 2-on-1. Nedeljkovic stops the first shot but loses where the puck is. Letang slides clean out of the play. Mathieu Olivier picks up the loose puck and tucks it into the open net.

The Pens decide to challenge the goal for some unknown reason, there was very minimal contact with the goalie but had nothing to do with why or how the goal was scored.
