For only the second time this month, the Penguins ended a game as the victors after a dominating 5-1 victory over the Dallas Stars on Thanksgiving Eve. Sidney Crosby returned to the lineup and dazzled with a goal and two assists in the victory. Jake Guentzel, Evgeni Malkin, Patric Hornqvist, and Tanner Pearson potted the other four goals for the Penguins.
The Penguins will get Thanksgiving off before taking on their first back-to-back of the season starting on Friday night in Boston against the Bruins.
