This was, Mike Sullivan said, just one of those nights for his team.
The kind that is inevitable every now and then during a season that sprawls across six months.
The kind that almost always end in a disappointing defeat.
Almost always.
Not this time, though.
In part, at least, because Tristan Jarry wouldn't let it.
Jarry, starting consecutive games for the first time in 2019-20, made 32 saves during the Penguins' 3-2 overtime victory against the Flames at PPG Paints Arena Monday evening.
His performance was not enough to earn him recognition as one of the game's three stars, but it certainly garnered the attention -- and appreciation -- of his teammates.
