Seven years ago today, the top nearly blew off of PPG Paints Arena when Nick Bonino scored a series-winning goal in overtime against the Washington Capitals in Game 6 of the second round of the 2016 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
In one of the most memorable playoff games of the 2016 and 2017 Stanley Cup runs, the game featured two wild swings — one in each direction for the Pens and for the Caps.
Early on, the Pens felt like they were in cruise control, even as tight as the series had been.
Phil Kessel opened the scoring and then doubled the Pens lead with a power play goal.
