The Penguins woes continued last night at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle. Squaring off against a Kraken club that featured five former Pens, the black and gold sputtered to a 3-1 defeat. Our fourth loss in a row.
Road warriors we ain’t. At least not on this trip.
If you’re searching for positives, we had a chance to earn a point or two till the bitter end, when Jaden Schwartz split an empty net with a minute remaining. Injured forwards Jake Guentzel and Jason Zucker returned to the lineup. Jake made a nifty play midway through the contest to pick off a cross-ice pass from old friend Jamie Oleksiak and steam in on a breakaway.
