Travis Konecny<\/a> said. “Pucks were seemingly just on the wall, and it was meant to be a battle along the walls I guess tonight, and we lost the majority of them. Gave them a lot of opportunities.”<\/p>\nFoerster, who leads the Flyers with 10 goals, left the game with 13:39 remaining in the second period because of an upper-body injury he sustained while taking a slap shot.<\/p>\n
Flyers coach Rick Tocchet didn’t have an update after the game.<\/p>\n
“He’s a good player,” Tocchet said. “I don’t know. I hope it’s not long. Obviously, he’s a big part of our team.”<\/p>\n
Crosby put the Penguins ahead 1-0 at 9:18 of the first period, driving to the net to score on the rebound of a shot from Rust.<\/p>\n
The Pittsburgh captain has scored in three straight games and has six points (five goals, one assist) during a three-game multipoint streak.<\/p>\n
Foerster tied it 1-1 at 5:36 of the second period, scoring with a shot from the left face-off circle during a delayed penalty while on a 5-on-3 power play.<\/p>\n
Crosby put the Penguins ahead 2-1 with his own power-play goal at 8:08, skating through the slot and one-timing a pass from Rust.<\/p>\n
“The entries were really good,” Crosby said of the power play, which scored three times in a game for the second time this season. “The first two goals you end up losing the face-offs and we end up getting in nice and being able to set something up, and ‘Rusty’ made a great play to me there. And then on his goal, took the space I was given there and took shots.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Pittsburgh went 3-for-4 on the power play and 6-for-7 on the penalty kill. “Special teams played a big…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":419144,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5132],"tags":[5229,1448,2830,1311,67,586,132,5230,68,2969],"class_list":{"0":"post-419143","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-philadelphia","8":"tag-america","9":"tag-pa","10":"tag-pennsylvania","11":"tag-philadelphia","12":"tag-united-states","13":"tag-united-states-of-america","14":"tag-unitedstates","15":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","16":"tag-us","17":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115649187108785398","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/419143","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=419143"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/419143\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/419144"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=419143"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=419143"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=419143"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
