Same lineup for the Penguins, but they give Casey DeSmith the start for the first ever Pens/Kraken game.
First period
Seattle has been stymied by subpar goaltending all season, and that reared it’s ugly head early as the Pens scored three times before the first television timeout.
The first goal 1:47 belonged to Big Jeff Carter and it wasn’t even a shot at all when his centering pass went off Philipp Grubauer and into the net. A nice bit of goal luck and regression for the Penguins as of late.
Then 4:47 in, it was Sidney Crosby’s turn to record a goal in his 38th different NHL venue.
