Last night, the Pittsburgh Penguins faced off against the Calgary Flames in yet another of their dreaded back-to-back situations that have plagued them so far this season. Luckily, the result was better than the past instances this season. Unlike the games against the Chicago Blackhawks, Tampa Bay Lightning, and Winnipeg Jets, the Penguins actually were competitive in this one.
A game that was scoreless for nearly the whole duration featuring a goal for each team in the 3rd period, it needed to be decided in overtime, and the Penguins came away with a point.
