Canes Country’s morning snap shots recapping last night’s action in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
The usual Penguins suspects did their thing Friday night in a 4-1 win over the Blue Jackets, taking a 2-0 series lead on home ice. Sidney Crosby tallied a three-point night (1g, 2a), Evgeni Malkin scored his second goal of the series, and Marc-Andre Fleury had a 39-save performance.
Fleury has now made 70 saves on 72 shots (.972 save percentage) since taking over for the injured Matt Murray, and may have been perfect in Game 2 had it not been for old pal Ron Hainsey, who deflected a Brandon Saad shot for the Jackets’ lone goal.
