The Penguins mix up the lines a little and sit Sam Lafferty to get Drew O’Connor back into a game.
First period
A fairly quiet first period. Pittsburgh plays pretty well and gets the majority of the shots and chances, but no goals. The Pens get the game’s first power play when Brock Boeser slashes Teddy Blueger. It’s short-lived after Kris Letang takes a retaliation minor to even things out. No harm or foul though.
Shots in the first are 12-7 PIT.
Second period
Early in the second, Jake Guentzel extends the NHL’s longest point streak to 12 games.
