Zach Aston-Reese’s drive to the net is what the Penguins need from depth players

Last night, during a 3-3 tied game at the MTS Centre against the Winnipeg Jets, the Penguins were looking for someone to come up with a game-winning goal.

In a game that had already featured depth scoring from players like Riley Sheahan and Derek Grant, you might think that would’ve been the end of the scoring from lesser expected players.

But wait!

It started with what looked like a simple play, where Phil Kessel had a one-on-one but the puck got away from him and into the corner.
