After a long break, the Penguins were looking to get back to their winning ways as the tight shuffle for playoff positioning continues. Thanks in large part to Jake Guentzel and Casey DeSmith, they were able to do just that with a 4-0 win over the visiting Boston Bruins.
The top line for Pittsburgh caught the Bruins on a line change for the game’s opening goal in the first period. In the blink of an eye in transition the puck went from Mike Matheson to Rickard Rakell to Sidney Crosby and finally in for Jake Guentzel. Guentzel took advantage of Boston out of position and forward Charlie Coyle was all that was left to defend him.
