Letang helps Penguins take 2-1 series lead
“I think this is the type of game we want to play,” Letang said. “In tight games, guys are responsible all over the ice and we didn’t make stupid decisions by turning the puck over. We grind teams down by putting pucks deep. We made sure we made them turn the puck over instead of creating offense.”
The Lightning committed a series-high 11 giveaways in Game 3 — after turning the puck over a combined three times the previous two games. Letang played a big part in that by playing the body effectively throughout.
“That’s why he’s an All-Star and a great player,” Kennedy said of Letang.
