A pretty boring first period, but that’s not the worst thing in the world for a road team with a lot of talent on the injured list like the Penguins.
About the most interesting thing was a 3-on-1 for Florida (led by no less than Aleksander Barkov) that actually had a Panther player as the 4th player — though he was out of the play. Anyways, that the chance was neutralized by a well-timed defensive slide made by Justin Schultz.
Other than that, the defensive TOI, all at even strength in the first, was really interesting.
