Evgeni Malkin and Sidney Crosby combined for 10 penalty minutes last night, but they also scored a goal a piece (including the GWG by Crosby), and the Penguins broke their 2-game losing streak with a 3-1 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes. The Penguins (37-14-8) also got a goal from Scott Wilson, and Matt Murray stopped 29 shots in the victory. Jeff Skinner’s 20th goal of the year was the only tally for the Hurricanes (24-24-8). Pittsburgh returns to action Saturday against the Philadelphia Flyers at Heinz Field.
