Penguins beat the Jets 4-3!
The Penguins extend their point streak to 5 with a win against the Jets. This positive turn in the right direction is helping them climb up the Metro standings! The Jets and Penguins would score goals on the first two periods, but the great defense and goal tending by DeSmith in the 3rd kept the Jets scoreless. Kris got his 15th assist on the 3rd period game winning goal by Zach Aston-Reese!
Next game is against the Colorado Avalanche, Wednesday at 9:30 PM EST
