Penguins' secondary players key to victory

Before game 1 of the 2016 Stanley Cup Playoffs started for the Pittsburgh Penguins, there were a lot of questions asked on how the team would do with out there star goalie Fleury and star forward Evgeni Malkin. Well they got a little help from their secondary players that help the Penguins to win 5-2 over the New York Rangers in game 1.This series between the Penguins and Rangers marks the third year in a row that these two faced each other with the Rangers winning the first two. The Penguins started goalie Jeff Zatkoff in net on Wednesday and this marked the first career start in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. He went up against "The King" Henrik Lundqvist of the New York Rangers. Lundqvist had to leave during the game because he got poked in the right eye by his teammate Marc Staal. There wasn't any scoring until Patric Hornqvist scored at 19:42 of the first period to give the Penguins a 1-0 lead. When the second period got underway the Penguins kept the surge going by adding another goal by Sidney Crosby to make it 2-0. As the final period got underway the Rangers put the pressure on the Penguins and finally got on the board curtsy of Derek Staphan to cut the lead in half. But the Penguins would anwser back with two more goals curtsy of  Kuhnhackl and Hornqvist for his second goal of the night. The Rangers would answer back with Stephan getting his second goal to make it 4-2. Hornqvist would seal the deal with an empty netter to make it 5-2 and to complete a hat trick for him. That game marked the first victory for Zatkoff in the playoffs. Can the Penguins pull off another victory to take a 2-0 series lead or will the Rangers steal the win to make the series even? Come on out tomorrow and cheer the Penguins to victory.
