Pens beat Bruins in final road game in regular season
In the final road game of the regular season the Pens win a tough one in Boston 5-3. It seemed like every time the Pens scored the Bruins had an answer.
The win didn’t come easily as Matt Niskanen took a big hit and Joe Vitale took a puck to the face and neither could finish the game.
The Penguins still had some defensive issues as well as turn over problems.
Scorers for the Penguins were; Sidney Crosby(6,7) Paul Martin (2) James Neal (40) Arron Asham (5)
James Neal’s 40th marks the first time the Penguins have had two 40 goal scorers since Jagr scored 52 and Kovalev scored 44 in the 2000-2001 season. Neal’s goal was also a powerplay goal, giving him a league leading 18 on the season.
Three Stars:
3) Kris Letang
2) Milan Lucic
1) Sidney Crosby
Next game is Thursday at home against the Rangers, puck drop is at 7pm.
