The Pittsburgh Penguins once again started the game with a little pep in their step, prevent the Bruins from managing a shot on net for a large part of the first half of the first period.
Despite the dominance – and stop me if you’ve heard this before – the Pens took a penalty at 7:28 into the period. The team managed to kill it off, but it killed the Penguins momentum.
Less than thirty seconds after the Boston Bruins penalty expired, former Pittsburgh Penguins player Max Talbot beat Jeff Zatkoff glove side for the 1-0 lead.
