The Pittsburgh Penguins may have gained a point on Tuesday night in a 5-4 shootout loss to the New York Islanders, but they had a lot of problems. For starters, Bryan Rust and Evan Rodrigues both exited the game early on and left them even more shorthanded up front while already playing without the suspended Evgeni Malkin. They also had a dreadful night on the power play, giving up a shorthanded goal and completely wasting an overtime opportunity in ugly, ugly fashion (while nearly potting an own goal on the empty net during the delayed penalty call).
