NEW YORK (AP) — Justin Brazeau scored twice, Arturs Silovs stopped all 25 shots he faced for his first regular-season NHL shutout, and the Pittsburgh Penguins beat the New York Rangers 3-0 on Tuesday night in each team’s opener.

Dan Muse won his debut as Penguins coach with his predecessor, Mike Sullivan, on the other bench running his first game with the Rangers. Sullivan guided Pittsburgh to back-to-back Stanley Cup titles in 2016 and ’17 as part of a nearly decade-long run there before parting ways in April.

Brazeau and Silovs were also playing for the Penguins for the first time. Brazeau signed as a free agent, while Silovs joined in a trade from Vancouver.

Evgeni Malkin led off his 20th season in the league by setting up Brazeau’s goal. Malkin beat Vincent Trocheck on an offensive zone faceoff to get the puck to Brazeau, who was alone in front and roofed a backhander past Igor Shesterkin.

Brazeau’s first goal with 32 seconds remaining in the first came near the end of a period that Pittsburgh controlled the play for much of the time. Silovs blockered away a shot from Alexis Lafrenière in the final seconds of an early Rangers power play but did not have to make too many other spectacular saves to get the win.

With Shesterkin pulled for an extra attacker, Brazeau had an empty-netter with 2:12 left, and Blake Lizotte sealed it with another 20 seconds later.

Mika Zibanejad, who Sullivan put on new captain J.T. Miller’s right wing to start the season, was one of the most noticeable players for New York. Zibanejad missed the net on a couple of scoring chances but also had a game-high seven shots on goal.

Defeating the Rangers gave the Penguins something to celebrate on opening night as Malkin, Sidney Crosby and Kris Letang made some history. They became the first trio in the four major North American men’s professional sports leagues to play 20 seasons together with the same team.

Second Half Mistakes Cost Freedom, Riverside Rolls 37-7

(North Sewickley, Pa)

When the Riverside Panthers played host to the Freedom Bulldogs on Friday evening. Late turnovers proved to be costly in an otherwise good match up in the Midwestern Conference.

On their opening drive, the Panthers drove the distance of the field and scored on a one yard touchdown run by Senior Hunter Garcia giving Riverside a 7-0 lead. That was the score until mid second quarter when Freedom Junior Kaden Bailey intercepted a momentum changing pass by Aidan Gaydosz. A few plays later Bailey punched it into the end zone on a five yard carry tying the game up at 7-7. With under a minute remaining in the first half and the game knotted up at 7, it was Hunter Garcia again for Riverside. This time on the receiving end of a 49 yard touchdown pass from Gaydosz. Giving the Panthers a 14-7 at the break.

Only a touchdown and an extra point separated these two teams. Until midway through the third quarter when Aidan Gaydosz found some space from a yard out and gave Riverside a 21-7 lead on a 1 yard touchdown run. In the final frame it was all Riverside, Gaydosz lead another scoring drive when he found Hunter Garcia for a 15 yard touchdown reception putting his team up 28-7. Freedoms ensuing drive was cut short when Riverside Senior Evan Skinner intercepted a pass, giving the ball back to his offense with a three touchdown advantage. Aidan Gaydosz found the end zone one more time on a run. Putting his team up 35-7. Josiah Sims would tack on a late safety for the Panthers making the score 37-7. That would be the final score at Riverside High School when the scoreboard clock read all zeros.

The Bulldogs fell to 1-2, 3-3. They’ll head home to host Union next Friday. While the Panthers improved to 2-1, 3-3 and will hit the road to face Ellwood City.

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Aaron Rodgers might be ready to take the practice field for the Pittsburgh Steelers. T.J. Watt is not. The star outside linebacker is skipping the start of mandatory minicamp. Watt likely is eyeing a new deal as he enters the final year of his current contract. The seven-time Pro Bowler and 2021 NFL Defensive Player of the Year signed a four-year extension in September 2021 that was scheduled to pay him $112 million and made him the highest-paid defender in the league at the time. Cleveland defensive end Myles Garrett now holds that honor after signing a deal worth $40 million a season in March.

By WILL GRAVES AP Sports Writer

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Dan Muse is the new head coach of the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Penguins hired the former New York Rangers assistant and tasked him with helping the franchise navigate a rebuild during the twilight of longtime captain Sidney Crosby’s career. Muse replaces Mike Sullivan. Sullivan and the Penguins split in April after a nearly decade-long tenure that included a pair of Stanley Cup titles. The Rangers scooped up Sullivan, naming him their coach in May. The 42-year-old Muse was hired after a monthlong search by Penguins general manager Kyle Dubas. Muse’s hiring leaves the Boston Bruins as the last of eight teams with offseason head coaching vacancies.
