Penguins drop exhibition game to Flyers in overtime

The Penguins' 3-2 overtime loss in an exhibition game against the Flyers on Tuesday marked the NHL's return to action for the first time in 139 days.

There was a lot of good to be seen in the Penguins' play on Tuesday, but there were still some clear kinks that need to be worked out before the real games begin on Aug. 1, not the least of which is the power play, which Dave Molinari covered in his 10 Thoughts column.

One of the biggest takeaways from Tuesday's game for the Penguins was that Sidney Crosby appears to be fine.
