Staal's OT goal lifts Pens over Rangers, 5-4
Marc-Andre Fleury stopped only eight of 12 shots, but was let off the hook by his high-scoring teammates. Henrik Lundqvist made a career-best 50 saves and had only a hard-luck loss to show for it.
Jordan Staal scored a power-play goal 3:42 into overtime on the 55th shot for the Penguins, who outlasted Lundqvist and the Rangers 5-4 on Thursday night. Staal also had a goal in the first period.
"It felt good," Lundqvist said of his save total, "but I don't feel good letting in five goals."
Evgeni Malkin, who earlier in the overtime advantage struck a goal post and was robbed by Lundqvist's outstretched glove, finally got a puck past the goalie when his drive from the left circle bounced in off Rangers forward Brandon Dubinsky and Staal. It was the third Penguins goal that went in off a New York player.
