Penguins Show Mettle, Rally to Snuff Out Flames 5-2

Impressed.

It’s been a long (long) time since I’ve felt that way about our Penguins.

I felt that way last night.

There are just so many things to like about our scintillating 5-2 victory over Calgary. The way we hung tough, for one. The Flames, rested while we skated the night before, played a pretty near perfect road game for 40 minutes. They outshot us 26-16 over that span, including a 7-2 margin over the final 10 minutes of the second period. Culminating in a power-play goal by rookie Matt Coronato 98 ticks before the intermission.
