Mike Sullivan Addresses Goalie Issue For Penguins

Jake Guentzel scored twice and Sidney Crosby scored 1:48 into overtime, and the Penguins win over the Philadelphia Flyers in comeback fashion; 5-4 at the PPG Paints Arena.

The Penguins were down 3-1 when Patric Hornqvist and Bryan Rust scored 39 seconds apart to tie the game early in the 3rd. Then after Michael Raffl put the Flyers ahead, Guentzel’s second goal with 1:04 left sent the game into the extra frame.

Tristan Jarry earned his second win in as many games, coming in to relieve Matt Murray, who left the game in the second period after Flyers forward Jakub Voracek collided with him in the net area.

After the game, head coach Mike Sullivan spoke about the situation with Murray’s injury and the goalies moving forward:
