Sidney Crosby grabbed his third point in OT and second goal of the game to break the Pens’ losing streak. That Zucker goal would send the game to overtime and earn them a point. kH3ANzn6X3- Pittsburgh Penguins April 10, 2022 From there, the talented forward was able to out-wait DeSmith and fire the puck into the net on a deke to tie the game at 1. Pettersson was then out of position and gave up the breakaway for Duchene. After Jason Zucker failed to get the puck deep and turned it over at the blueline, Marcus Pettersson inexplicably failed to prevent a stretch pass that literally somehow went through his stick and to Duchene. DeSmith was very good for much of the game, but couldn’t do much about a defensive breakdown late in the first that resulted in a Matt Duchene goal late in the first period. Since the Pens were doing very little, it put increased pressure on backup goalie Casey DeSmith who got the start. Pittsburgh only mustered three shots on goal in the opening period and had just four shots close to the game’s halfway point, no forward besides Crosby had a shot on goal. With it baseball season beginning again, the Pens looked liked they were honoring Derek Bell with an Operation Shutdown of their own, albeit inadvertent and unintended.
