The Penguins traveled to Montreal last night looking for a win, and they found it at the expense of the lowly Canadiens.
Paul Steigerwald has the recap of the shutout win. (6-0)
Sidney Crosby finally scored his first goal after missing the first part of the season with a wrist injury and then losing more time to covid-19. He says he is getting stronger every day, but it hasn’t come easily.
Crosby says the Penguins have a good group of bottom-six forwards, and their hard work was a key last night.
Goaltender Tristan Jarry says the Pens were determined to start strong last night, and it was evident even in the warmup.
The Penguins skated without coach Mike Sullivan behind the bench. He could not coach because Canadian law forbids entry into the country of anyone who has tested positive for covid-19 within the last fourteen days. Sullivan will pass that benchmark today and meet the team in Toronto, where they play next on Saturday night.
