Who’s one step closer to hoisting Lord Stanley? The Wrap-Around is your daily update for last nights’ NHL Playoff action.4-1 Penguin Victory Puts Them One Game From Finals.
The Penguins outplayed the Flyers once again, this time on the Flyers' home ice. The Penguins had 25 shots to the Flyers 18, although the Flyers had more hits and won more faceoffs. The 9 more giveaways didn't help the cause of the Flyers.
Ryan Whitney scored the games' first goal on a powerplay for the Penguins. A few minutes later, Marian Hossa scored a goal to give the Penguins a 2-0 lead. The Flyers would get back within one on a R.J. Umberger goal only a few minutes later to make it 2-1. No more goals would be scored until halfway through the 3rd period, and the Penguins would put it out of reach on a Ryan Malone goal. Marian Hossa scored an empty netter late to end it 4-1.
With that, the Penguins lead 3-0 and can end the series on a sweep on Thursday.
