Marc Andre Fleury made 29 saves to lead the Vegas Golden Knights to a 3-0 shutout over the Penguins last night at PPG Paints Arena, snapping the Pens’ five-game winning streak.
Fleury, in his second appearance in Pittsburgh since being dealt to the expansion Golden Knights three seasons ago, made a number of dazzling saves, robbing the Penguins of some great chances to get back in the game. It was a one-goal game until the Golden Knight scored two empty-netters late.
Here’s a recap …
Pittsburgh did not dress Jared McCann for the game, as he continues to deal with an unspecified injury, and defenseman Brian Dumoulin was a last-minute scratch for an undisclosed reason. McCann had returned to the lineup for the Penguins and scored a goal in Friday’s win over Dallas.
