The problem was not that Tristan Jarry's franchise-record shutout streak ended during the second period Tuesday night.
Hey, it couldn't last forever, and 177 minutes, 15 seconds is a pretty nice run.
No, the real issue is the other two shutout streaks -- OK, they were more like smudges -- that Jarry had during that period.
When you cram more than one or two shutout streaks into a 20-minute span, things probably aren't going to turn out well.
Which they most certainly did not for the Penguins in what became a 4-1 loss to the Canadiens, although there was no consensus on what allowed a 1-0 lead to mutate into a three-goal defeat, their first regulation loss on home ice after an 8-0-2 run that began on Oct.
