The Penguins are in a competitive situation playing meaningful games late in the season in large part thanks to Alex Nedeljkovic’s goaltending. So he gets the nod for a ninth straight start. Ryan Shea had border issues gaining entry to Canada but was able to have that cleared up in time to play.

First period
Good first for the Penguins, they get the better of the play and are all over the puck. They get the game’s first goal late in the period as a perfect example of that from their best line as of late.
