The Penguins offense couldn’t come to life Sunday night as they dropped the second game of a two-game set against the New York Islanders.
Paul Steigerwald has the recap.
A perturbed coach Mike Sullivan says the Islanders aggressive play in the offensive is something the Penguins should have been prepared for.
Casey DeSmith started in goal for the Penguins for the first time since February 11th. He says it was good to get back in the action.
Defenseman John Marino says the Penguins need to improve in all aspects.
Marino says the Islanders were very aggressive in the offensive zone, particularly high in the zone.
Pittsburgh did not get a shot on goal until almost the 16-minute mark of the first period.
The Penguins start a five-game homestand tomorrow night with the first of three straight against the Flyers. They will play Philadelphia on Thursday and again on Saturday before welcoming the New York Rangers to PPG Paints Arena.
