![]() ![]() ![]() Pittsburgh gets a third power play attempt early but it fails like the first two. But the goalies had all the answers through 40. Better second for the Pens with all the power play time to get a 17-5 shot edge, and 26-22 overall. They beat Juuse Saros but the puck that gets behind him is covered by Ryan McDonagh pushing it back to the goalie. The Pens get a second bite at the power play apple when Bryan Rust is interfered with. Pittsburgh’s power play, however, does not display very much power on their first sighting of the night. Second periodįirst shift of the period is better for the Pens this time around, Guentzel evens up his penalty differential on the night by drawing a tripping call. 5v5 shots are 11-9 in favor of Nashville with the score remaining 0-0. At one point it’s 14-4 for Nashville, a late flurry by the Pens bring it back to a more respectable 16-9 spot at the end of the period. Pittsburgh kills it off, but not before the Preds pound the net with several shots. While tired, Jake Guentzel took down Roman Josi to award Nashville with the opening power play. Sidney Crosby strikes iron with a slapshot, puck stays out and the Pens’ top line got trapped in their own end after that. The Pens allow a breakaway on the first shift, as is becoming all too much of a custom, but Tristan Jarry is ready and stops Mikael Granlund. Tanner Jeannot and Nino Niedderreiter are gone too, having being traded last week. Mattias Ekholm ain’t here no more, after being traded today ending a stint in Nashville for over a decade. The Predators don’t post a lineup card (boo) but for them it’s starting to be about who you don’t see. #LetsGoPens /r5TRl1PIyS- Pittsburgh Penguins March 1, 2023 ![]()
