Penguins/Kings Recap: Rust-tacular. Pens find a way to pull out 5-4 win (shootout)

Unfortunately for the Penguins, Evgeni Malkin is still too sick to play and while it’s a positive that they get to use the same lineup as last game, well, it’s not a very strong lineup.

The last place Los Angeles Kings aren’t exactly a juggernaut themselves though.

LA opens the scoring on the rush, Adrian Kempe makes a nice pass over for (checks notes) someone named Austin Wagner who scores his first goal in 23 games this season slamming one home past Tristan Jarry.

The very next shift, the Pens get one past Jonathan Quick.
