DeSmith's 'amazing' relief performance not enough in Winter Classic loss; 'ready for challenge' if Jarry out

BOSTON -- Casey DeSmith said that he was in "uncharted territory."

It was late in the first period and the game was still scoreless in the Winter Classic matchup between the Penguins and Bruins at Fenway Park. Tristan Jarry, who had stopped all eight shots he had faced to that point, had pulled himself from the game and exited through the Fenway Park dugout after suffering an undisclosed lower-body injury early in the period. It's not totally clear what Jarry's injury is or how exactly it happened, but it was evident for several minutes at that point that Jarry was dealing with something, given some of his awkward movements in the crease.
