Except for a brief stretch in the first period, this was an encouraging performance from the Pens even when Boston was still up 2-0. The Bruins are the class of the Eastern Conference and have the #1 PK unit in the league. They can frustrate you, even if you feel like you're playing well.
But what a f***ing breakthrough by the Pens late in the third. Yes, the Bruins were on the second of a back-to-back, but good teams -- teams with expectations of winning the Stanley Cup -- win these games. They plug away, and plug away, knowing that eventually they'll get a break. That's what the Pens did.
Underrated performance by Fleury. Full recap in the morning. What a win.
