'Ning 4 - Nils 3

The Pens coming off a long road trip, went down 2-0 before Nils Ekman scored a natural hat trick in the 2nd. Fluery kept them in it in the third until St Louis made an unbelievable play to to a streaking Lecavalier who back handed it past MAF for the win.

Mike T continues to juggle his lines looking for a good combination.

The Pens have now lost 3 straight although they've been in all three.

Malkin History

Rare in-game post:

Evgeni Malkin just scored his 6th goal tying the NHL record for goals scored in consecutive games starting with his first game. The original record was from 1918 which was the first season of the NHL so it was everyone's first season.

Congrats Geno.

Also Staal has his 5th goal.
