GAME RECAP: Penguins vs. Blue Jackets (03.28.24) | Malkin Scores Two Power-Play Goals

Thursday night, the Pittsburgh Penguins hosted the Columbus Blue Jackets for the first of a home and home over three days. Columbus started the scoring in the 2nd period. Following that goal with a power play opportunity, Evgeni Malkin capitalized and tied the game. The Blue Jackets scored another goal to take back the lead. Before the period ended, the Penguins had a second power-play. Once again Malkin hammered the puck home netting his second of the night. Heading into the 3rd tied 2-2, Drew O’Connor scored the go-ahead goal to take the Penguins first lead of the game. Pittsburgh defended against Columbus and kept them off the board for the rest of the game and took the victory with a final score of 3-2.

Sid is ON FIRE! That's 9 points for him in the last 3 games!!!

[@johnnythunder196]

small shot at 100....should get 92-95....if we had a competent PP coach all year may have done 110-120

[@MrYouarethecancer]

Bro took the not getting a PPG season talk personally

[@1pbdecoded1pb]

Simply moving Sid and Geno to the left side on the power play changes everything. I hope we get a power play coach because the Pens have all the talent.

[@johnnythunder196]

Sad how many points this clueless SOB PP coach has cost the Pens...especially Geno and Letang this year (robbed them of 20+ points each easy)....really cost us the playoffs as we'd be shoe ins with even an average PP....so frustrating.

Jarry doesn't start. Pens win. Who would have thought it?

Dubas better figure out a way to get rid of that Albatross, or suffer 4 more years of a "starting" goalie that falls apart after NYE like clockwork.

@@jsebby2284 True, the tanks have already rolled in, so Jarry will help sink this team to the bottom while earning a very healthy salary for it.
