Penguins, penalty kill implode in 5-1 loss to Hurricanes

For the third time in 13 days, the Pittsburgh Penguins (35-19-16) and Carolina Hurricanes (45-19-6) clashed in a battle of the two top teams in the Metropolitan Division, but this one was all Carolina. The Penguins’ top-ranked penalty kill failed them on Sunday afternoon, allowing three Hurricanes power play goals in route to a 5-1 loss.
