Leafs Fall To Pens In OT
On a night when the Leafs honoured former coach Pat Quinn with a shamrock sweater patch, the Pittsburgh Penguins rode a Blake Comeau hat trick into the win column. Comeau scored his third goal during the overtime period to lift the Pens to a 4-3 win over the blue and white. Comeau didn’t take long to set the pace, scoring 26 seconds into the first period, marking the fourth game this season that Jonathan Bernier has given up a goal in the first two minutes of a game.

Windsor - November 27, 2014 - On a night when the Leafs honoured former coach Pat Quinn with a shamrock sweater patch, the Pittsburgh Penguins rode a Blake Comeau hat trick into the win column. Comeau scored his third goal during the overtime period to lift the Pens to a 4-3 win over the blue and white. Comeau didn’t take long to set the pace, scoring 26 seconds into the first period, marking the fourth game this season that Jonathan Bernier has given up a goal in the first two minutes of a game. A Malkin goal would put the Pens up 2-0 on the Buds going into the first intermission.The Leafs had their chances in the first period, as they outshot Pittsburgh 14-7, but failed to solve Marc-Andre Fleury.

In the second period it was Leo Komarov’s turn to shine, as the Leafs forward scored two goals to tie the game. The line of Komarov, Kadri and Santorelli was clearly Toronto’s best tonight, and the Leafs deserved to win based on their play alone. But it was not meant to be on this night, and after Comeau and Tyler Bozak exchanged goals, the teams went to overtime tied 3-3.

Comeau sealed the deal in OT, scoring the second hat trick in his career, giving the Pens a 4-3 win.

After assisting on Malkin’s first period goal, Sid the Kid has 799 points.

Leafs proved again tonight that they’re more than a one line team.

Pens sweep the season series 3-0.

Marc Andre Fleury has the coolest pads in the league.

And…..it’s time for Jonathan Bernier to step it up a notch and steal a game or two.
