straight almost a week apart and the Penguins and Wild are underway for Sydney Crosby, Yoel Erikson on that opening draw and we’re ready to rock and roll here inside Pikachu Paints Arena. Take a look at the Toyota Tacoma lines at the top of your screen as Dan Muse has gone right back to the same lineup that won the other night in Sweden. There’s Brock Faber carrying it ahead for Minnesota. 23-year-old defenseman wires it down the Penguins ice. Johansson staples Shay favor a shot save she’s loose in front. Baldi scores Matt Baldy on the backand puts it past Archer Sheilobs and the Wild have the early lead. What the Minnesota Wild do so well they get pucks in and then they get after it down the walls closing it off. Big Ericen Eck there to make a play and then Baldi left all alone in front. Matt Baldi’s team leading 12th of the year as Dila Yurov carries in. Here’s Broaddin to the slot. Shoots and a save by Sheilogs. Johansson on the half wall taking a glance here for Minnesota. Astrosen to Johansson. They pay play catch and Astros. Sharp angle shot stopped by Sheilops. 25 seconds left on this double minor. Real inflection point here in the early game for the Penguins. They can find a way to kill off the remaining seconds on this. Wild have other ideas though. Here’s Boo. Moves in. Wrist shot. Scores. They hit Capri off right out front. Josh leading the conga line down the Minnesota bench. Oh, they get something that they weren’t able to really get. And that’s an entry. And Capriov just blasted through to set this play up.

And the Wild have opened up a three nothing lead just past the midway point of the first. Been a real good year here for the Minnesota Wild. A shot that miss and Baldi net front. They continue to work it around does the Wild and then this one timer through the seam. They work it up top. Kind of like almost like a high kind of cycle trying to open up the middle of that ice. Sho had it knocked off his stick. Wild spoon off Felino. He’s pass ricochets to the slot collected by Hinestroza. He’s got ahead of steam. Hestro over the line. Shoots one. Save made by Sheilobs. loose in front and she loves covers up with the wild whacking aways onto the tape of Sammy Puland over the attacking end backhander and a save made by Guskinson.

Wrist shot fought off by Sheilobs in November against this wild team. One timer for Carlson. Fake back to Latang. Here’s Carlson. Shot deflected wide. Kendall after it. Favor lost his stick. Kendall sweeps it back to Carlson. Looking across the Latang. He’ll shoot. Save by Gustoson. He squeezes the pads together and hangs on. All right. Go over to Sweden. Nice. Yes. But sitting here and watching for this extended period of time. What’s that been like for you? Yeah, it’s I’ll be honest with you. I mean, you know better than we do. Your captain, Sydney Crosby, is pretty superstitious. He obviously wants you down there on his wing, but if the Penguins rally back here and you’re in the booth, I don’t know, man. Yeah, we’re going to Yeah, make it a regular thing. Yeah, we’ll keep you busy at least, right? Yeah, for sure. Wild have scored again here as that one gets in and just over a minute into the second period, it’s 4 nothing. Yeah, I was wondering how was it going to go and and listen Rex, we know it’s it’s not I mean you miss a couple days of games or practices with the travel and you’re I was wondering how this game would go for the Penguins like walk me through like even for you just being injured right now. No, it’s been great. I mean he’s uh I really feel like he’s he doesn’t feel like uh Sorry, I was watching. All right. So, a new face. We haven’t seen too many new faces around here, but Ben Kindle, new uh draft pick for the Penguins. Makes the team and look really good as well. Big save by Mishaw. Good skater. He’s got that shot as well to go with it. There’s Russ with a burst of speed trying to get a step. A shot shoulder to side by Gustoson. And there’s Crosby. Slides it off the body in the slot. Picked up by Capriov. feeds it cross ice. Zukarelloo takes it there. Back to Capri. Nice pass down low and a great save by Murave on Yuron. Capriav holding it, shooting it. Saved.

Wild will clear it all the way back down. Able to make plays, but Minnesota just picking those off on him up high by the blue line. Save by Gustoson off the shot from Novak. Here’s Latang. Slips it towards Novak. Swatted deeper. Collected by Broaddin. Knocked down by Novak. Loose puck to Rust as Tommy Novak getting a shift here with I bet your pardon that’s Connor Der as it comes out to center. There’s Shay back around it comes. Capri throws it in front. They score. Baldi got stick on puck. His second of the game. And the Wild are running away with this one. It’s 5 nothing. Where am I moving this puck? Pops down into the corner. like we’re starting right in the offensive zone here, but seemingly right here. Chay, all kinds of time. Where’s my support? He tries to go to the weak side of the ice. He had the right idea, but you want to have some confidence and some belief going into that match up. Yeah, Seattle got in last night, not long after Minnesota got in, and they are sitting here waiting. But you need something good to happen, right? You got to something good to happen to you here in the third period. Not this. Erikson back in. A shot there. Deflected wide as Baldi was looking for the hattick. Novak gets it back. Slipped to the slot. He finds Copen. And a shot off the post. But just not clean on their execution. And here’s that competent post. Short side high. Rolls around the Shay up top. Lang feeds Novak. Takes a look. Fires. Save. Gustinson and he squeezes the armpit back towards Crosby. Right back to Latang. It’s picked off though by Jones and Latang will retrieve it for Pittsburgh. Here’s Connor Der back in. Oh shoot. Blocker save by Gustoson. Kind of opened up there for Der and he let it fly. That was a line change as well. Otherwise Heinen might have been crashing down that back post a little sooner. Here’s Lazot with a burst of speed. Feeds Hein. He’ll shoot. Missed to the far post. Around it comes. Punched out by Graves. Also wide to the cage. He for Clifton. Back to Heinen. Across for Graves. His shot blocked by Trenan. Comes deeper for Lazot. Tried to work out with it. Ran into Broaddin. He’s wraparound is stopped by Gustoson at the post. It was there. I believe you. There’s Mantha. Wrist shot gobbled up by Gustoson. Yeah, you know, Army, the Minnesota Wild, we mentioned how good they’ve been. They’ve played with the lead pretty much throughout this entire stretch. This is now the seventh straight game that they have not trailed in regulation. Seven straight games, not minutes. We’re talking games here. The shot there from Hayes is kicked out by Gustoson. The 26y old will play it back into the Penguins and as it comes into Murave. He hangs on. Graves ahead to Crosby. Carries over the attacking line. Crosby floats it on net. A save made by Gustoson who covers up. Settles it. He connects to Graves. Here’s Rust. A shot. A save made by Gustoson. Cross back to Derer turning and shooting and a save again.
