Recap: Tha Carter IV. Pens thump Sabres 8-4 on Jeff Carter’s FOUR goal night

Same lineup as last game for the Penguins for their second-to-last game of the regular season.

And how ‘bout if for Houser-mania. The Wexford native Michael Houser and goalie who has worked his up through the ranks of the minor leagues brings a 2-0 career NHL record to face his hometown team.

First period

In a very unexpected turn of events, the Sabres strike first, and just 2:45 into the contest. Mark Friedman loses the puck in the middle of the ice and the Pens aren’t back in numbers to defend.
