Sheary, Penguins Defeat Buffalo In OT
Conor Sheary ended overtime rather quickly, scoring 16 seconds into the frame, and giving the Penguins a 5-4 overtime victory over the Sabres on Tuesday night at PPG Paints Arena. Sheary’s 2nd career OT goal (and 2nd of the night) gives Pittsburgh their 7th straight win over Buffalo, and their 12th in the last 13.
Phil Kessel scored his 4th goal in as many games, while Sidney Crosby tallied his first goal since October 20. Patric Hornqvist also tallied for the Pens, and Matt Murray made 28 saves.
