By all accounts, our Penguins did a lot of good things last night. Stats-wise, we dominated our blood-rival Capitals, piling up a 79-52 edge in shot attempts and a 47-32 advantage in shots on goal. We had 19 high-danger chances to the Caps’ 12. We struck for three, count ‘em, three power play goals.
And we lost, 4-3, in overtime.
Following a blazing 17-2 run, I guess a bit of a course correction is to be expected. As the old saying goes, you can’t win ‘em all. And we did manage to squeeze a point out of the affair.
