Instead of winning the Stanley Cup on home ice in Game 5 Thursday night, the Penguins could not solve San Jose goalie Martin Jones, and they dropped a 4-2 decision.
It was a game that broke the mold in the Stanley Cup Final, because the Penguins had scored the opening goal in each of the previous four games. But this time, the Sharks not only jumped out to a 1-0 lead on a quick goal by Brent Burns at the 1:04 mark, they stretched it to 2-0 shortly thereafter when Logan Couture scored his first goal of the series at the 2:53 mark.
