WASHINGTON — Matt Murray was really good for the Penguins Thursday night.
Good enough to earn a fist bump from Mario Lemieux in the Penguins’ locker room after the game.
Good enough to keep the Penguins within striking distance in a close, low-scoring game
Good enough to remind everyone that, even after a so-so end to the first round, he still usually brings his best when the lights are brightest.
“It’s hard to win at this time of year if you don’t get a timely save, and Matt gave it to us tonight,” Mike Sullivan said.
