The Penguins are back in first place in the NHL’s Metro Division after a third straight win on the road yesterday in New Jersey.
Paul Steigerwald has the story.
Penguins coach Mike Sullivan says the team played almost as well yesterday as it did on Thursday in a shutout win over Ottawa.
Sullivan says veteran forward Brian Boyle has been a good fit with the Penguins, on and off the ice.
Defenseman Mike Matheson appreciates what Brian Boyle brings to the team.
Brian Boyle says the work of the fourth line is defined differently than the Penguins’ more celebrated forwards, but it’s important.
The Penguins play the Flyers tomorrow at home, then visit Toronto on Thursday night before a Sunday afternoon showdown at PPG Paints Arena against the Carolina Hurricanes, who they just bumped out of first place. The Pens lead Carolina by one point, but the Hurricanes do have three games in hand.
