The Penguins marched on to a three-game win-streak Friday night with a win over the Dallas Stars. Fleury was sensational in net and the offense was unmatched despite a few key injuries to Sergei Gonchar and Maxime Talbot.
Amazingly all of the Penguins' goals were scored at even strength. The Stars played a well disciplined game, entitling the Pens to only one power play chance in the closing minutes of the third period.
Crosby kicked off the scoring for the Pens, and wind up finishing with two on the night. The youngster Tyler Kennedy netted one as well, showing his potential in the way of scoring. Despite his small frame that often results in being on the receiving end of hits along the boards, Kennedy brings speed and a sharp stick to the third and fourth lines.
Evgeni Malkin also lit up the ice with a late third period goal to further secure the lead for the Pens.
Marc-Andre Fleury's only slip on the night came on a slapshot from Mike Ribeiro via a screen from former Stars defenseman Daryl Sydor.
The three wins at the end of the month put the Penguins at 5-8-1 for November. Earlier in the month the Pens seemed to be struggling. However, the offense was able to turn it around, as was the netminding of the team to secure some W's before the month's end.
Tomorrow we'll take a look at the month of November in review, in addition to a recap of the Pens vs Maple Leafs game.
