Penguins vs. Stars | NHL Highlights | December 07, 2025

Puck is dropped and we are underway as the Stars 
welcome in the Pittsburgh Penguins. It’s the only trip that Sydney Crosby and company 
make. It’s a quick icing and Essa Lindell was there to pick it off. That’s that patented 
set play. Crosby’s off to the side of the net. Whoopsy daisy. Eric Carlson can turn the puck 
over at a dizzying rate. He he got in between his mind there and stars. Miko Rantin. He powers 
ahead. The moose crosses the line. It’s Johnston back for Rantin. Got the shot and Jarry turned 
it aside. Cappo Biano at the left point down low for Rantin. Good anticipation there by Ryan 
Sheay to deflect the pass. Shay’s turned into an everyday player for the Penguins. three years 
with the Texas Stars, Dallas’s AHL affiliate, before finding a home with the Pens. Kappo Bienko 
and now off of steel. Dumbo with a shot. Stopped rebound. There was a tight angle for Mantha. He 
could not get it home. What a deflection by Brazle right in front. This is a big tall meaty line 
for the Pens. Johnston chased by Brazo and the wrist shot goes just wide provides the most meat 
of that line is making an impact immediately in his return. Kolia Chona crossing the blue line 
and a shot snapped by Lungquist into Jarry. A little bit of contact the three rookies and Kindle 
who’s been the most productive leaves it for Kyven and then redirected offer. He had to get the pad 
down. Stuffed in front by McGory. The deflected puck fought off by the Dallas net minder. But some 
elevated heartbeats after that. Still scoreless as the Stars take over and snap a shot. Rope 
heads up off the glass. Then Lindell fires a low bid. Saved by Jarry. Shots are 54 favoring 
Pittsburgh. They turn it over. Maverick Bour across. Ritzcoian has Beck fed there. Saved. Bour 
keeps it going. Petravic off the bar with his wrist. This was a very patient setup after the 
turnover by Weatherspoon. They waited a little bit. Hung on to it after the dash to the netfront 
and they used the defenseman away from things. Jarry was all discombobulated. had lost his stick 
in Oscar Beck’s drive to the net. Not much Beck could do with it. He’s in tight and then Petravic 
with a lifter. He settles the puck. Offers back then gets it one more time. The hand off with 
a shot saved by Jarry. Jamie Ben first to it. Long stretch back to him off the reach of the 65 
forward and then ranted in taken away by Mantha with the shot from the slot after the turnover. 
Now it’s Graves goes back for Mantha. Rister is blocked by Hasten and collected and going the 
other direction. Rantin and played well by Graves. The veteran Graves midway through a six-year 27 
million deal. Here’s a shot save made on Mantha’s opportunity through center ice. A chip in from 
the red line off of Gar’s blocker and then Ben bulldozing to the corner. Knocked down Dumba back 
for Ben. Stopped and he follows it up himself. Nowhere for Petravic to go but to ride the rim in 
deep and back where Graves is able to get there. Fire off for Achari. brace for some contact after 
gloving at it first. Penguins move it. Shot score. Connor Der unccorked the shot from the slot. 
Oh, this is a great play by Lazot along the boards. Little buck in the middle that they 
just sort of chunk the puck into the star zone and immediately when he got the puck on the 
left wing boards, he knew what he wanted to do with it. the stars trying to do each other’s 
jobs a little bit because of that misplay in in neutral ice and from that wide open is Derer he 
sort of waves the stick a little bit and talked about the special teams equation that we haven’t 
seen so far in the contest at the start of the broadcast here’s a twoon-one it’s with Ben fed 
there and Jarry does a 360 after making the save then the stars maneuver their way through some Penguins traffic. Robertson springs it 
in for Hints with speed. Ben scores. No problem on that one. Hints to 
Ben to the back of the net. Oh, this is unbelievable puck movement by the Stars. 
They love that play. The forward comes back toward the defenseman. Robertson’s able to hit. Prope 
hints on full gallop and then Ben just trails back. Dumbo gets absolutely clowned as he 
tried to do two jobs at once. Hence slides it over and k bang. The captain with a perfect 
sizzler. No way Jar’s getting across in time on that. Quinnan steals it back for the Penguins 
who move it to Shay. His shot got through. And Crosby once more springs it for Shay. 
Shot pinalled off bodies. Novak. Crosby. Let one-time score. The missile shot. Novak 
was in front. Looked like he got a piece and the Penguins reclaim the lead. I think Otinger 
might have got his right leg on it anyway. And then they just bump it back to the point. The 
quick shot. There’s no Stars were spread out. There was nobody challenging Novak in the heart 
of the slot. They chased to the perimeter open lane. Perfect deflection up over the glove of 
Jakeer and turned it over on his long pass up ice. And then Foxa had it taken away by Kendall. 
Koanin is in. Sends a hopper on Andrew who steers to the corner. That was a car crash right in front 
of the Dallas bench. Chachuri in save made on nice job to corral that rebound. Pull it in. Number 
one power play against what you talked about that fantastic penalty kill as of late as Carlson to 
the right side. Blasted again and read it well to get in the way. Got one in deep. Crosby up to the 
point. Carlson with a shot. Aer made that save. Rantin gives it back to him. Wyatt Johnston 
and his dozen power play goals. Now Robertson looking in front. Deflected away. Stars work it 
down low. Robertson’s looking for the weak side and it just skips off of that pad as Ranton and 
tried to get to the pipe. They’ve been very good on that weak side an awful lot. Just gets his 
toe. Finds Hastenan left circle. Rantin one time blasted wide comes out for Hastenan. 
Lazot strips it away. Johnston steals back shot and it stayed out. Jason Robertson had 
the look up high at the line. They go low. Robertson Mo Rantin center of the zone. Set it 
up. Hasten and fake the one-time under two to play in regulation. Stars trailing 2-1. Wyatt 
Johnston over to the right. Hast and scores. Six on five turns in to two to two. Not being able to change on icing. The Stars 
can. Weary guys out there for Pittsburgh. They held tight in the interior. blocked some shots, 
but a scorching weapons grade slapper from Miro Hast. And look at the bend on that stick. 
Might have ticked the penguin. A bewildered jar in behind. He didn’t see anything but 
jerseys. Mirror long indeed. Johnston settles, hits with speed across the line and Rantin 
had it taken away. He steals it back. shovels in front. Jarry the save on Johnston. 
This is the pure panic clear stars in. What a wonderful setup by Miko Rant today. 
Went backand to backhand him and Johnston. Stars with a rush up ice. Hints has Robertson. 
Hints. Robertson saved. Jory literally saved the game. And on we go. A twoon one if we’re going 
to go all numbery. What a stop by Jarry. Then gets knocked down and Hasten wants to go. 
He will with numbers. Hastin has Robertson. Hastin. Robertson and stopped up and out of play. 
Had a couple of looks throughout late stages. First shooter for the Penguins is Brian 
Rust. He’s one for three this season. One for four is under standing. Ate it up with 
the glove. He was using a salmon net or something. Look at that. Straight into the reticulate. 
Actually snapped his wrist back. Matt Duchain gets a welcome back on the announcement for him. 
Just his second attempt. First game in forever. Duchaine stopped by Jarry. And that five hole 
was staring at him between the legs. Then it just as soon as he tries to snipe it through, Sydney 
Crosby is one for two this year. Wide left, curls back, weaving and uner with the blocker. Stoned 
him scoreless for two rounds. Patience by Auter slows down. He’s trying to go over the pad now. He 
gets the green light. Ranting in on Jory. scores. Mo gives Dallas the lead. Full of sass and brass. 
This is just an eloquent dart. Perfectly placed. Pick the corner. Same thing that Crosby just tried 
at the other end. Just beat that stick. They are an unar save away from completing the comeback. 
It’s Leang trying to extend it. Save in the glove. Jay Goter greeted by his teammates.
