Recap: Pens give up a touchdown in TD Garden, lose 7-5

A rare treat for the Penguins, the same lineups, lines and goalie as the last game are used again this afternoon.

First period

The first period feels a lot like an extension of Thursday night’s game. Shots are low (9-6 Pittsburgh) and the Pens also score first again. Just 3:24 in, Mark Jankowski wins an offensive zone faceoff and Mike Matheson shoots from the point that Jankowski tips and goalie Jaroslav Halak has no chance on it. 1-0 Pens.

It seemed like everything was going the Pens way again in the first.
