Pittsburgh Penguins end their long San Jose victory drought

The Sharks wore throwback jerseys, but it was the Pittsburgh Penguins who reverted to the old days to finally win at SAP Center.

The Penguins received two goals from right wing Phil Kessel and goalie Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 33 of 34 shots to win Tuesday in San Jose, 5-1, for the first time since October 1997. Pittsburgh had gone 13 games in San Jose without a victory.

Pittsburgh left wing David Perron put his team up 4-1 with a power-play strike at 8:42 of the third period.
