He’s not the fit the Penguins were hoping for when they signed him. That, combined with arecent offensive outburst might make him the best shot Pittsburgh has at receiving a return at the trade deadline. Fellow fourth-liner Radim Zohorna stood out in two of the Penguins’ five goals during Thursday night’s 5-2 victory over the New York Rangers.
Bryan Rust scored two goals and Sidney Crosby had a goal and two assists in leading the streaking Pittsburgh Penguins to a 6-4 victory over the New Jersey Devils on Friday night. Jared McCann, Brian Dumoulin and Colton Sceviour also scored as the banged-up Penguins won their second game in as many nights and eighth in 11 games (8-2-1). Casey DeSmith made 25 saves in snapping a personal two-game losing streak.
St. Louis scored nine times against Minnesota for a second straight win. Elsewhere, Vegas scored seven goals and Johansson got his first NHL shutout. (Jeff Curry-USA TODAY Sports)
