Pens/Columbus Recap: Take off your pants and (Blue) Jacket

Slow starts have been nothing new for the Penguins early in this season, and that continued on Saturday in Columbus.

The Blue Jackets carried the play early and scored two goals in the first period to jump out to a lead. It was a period to forget for Kris Letang, whose clearing effort from behind the net turned into a Boone Jenner CBJ goal to open the scoring.

Columbus would make it 2-0 while short-handed. Letang banks the puck back off the boards to no one in particular and Jack Roslovic steps up to take the gift and beats Tristan Jarry on the breakaway.
