Why can’t the Penguins get a handle on overtime?

If you want to watch Penguins overtime hockey, do not go fix a snack between the final whistle of the third and the start of the extra frame.

It could all be over before you sit back down.

Brady Tkachuk scored just 25 seconds into overtime against the Penguins in Ottawa in Thursday, marking the Penguins’ 7th loss in 10 overtime opportunities.

This is the third time this season the Penguins have lost in overtime on the opposing team’s first shot.

It happened for the first time on November 29 against the visiting Hurricanes in what might have been the strangest overtime ending of the season.
