Briefly

Panthers swept aside in 5-2 loss to Penguins
"Rickard Rakell scored twice; Sidney Crosby had a goal and two assists; and Elmer Soderblom and Bryan Rust also scored for the surprising Penguins, who are currently in second place in the Metropolitan Division."
"The Penguins would run off four-straight goals with Rakell's power-play marker late in the first, which followed Crosby's go-ahead goal, and his second of the afternoon late in the middle frame putting the Panthers in a deep hole."
"The Panthers put forth a much better effort than they did on Saturday, out-shooting the Penguins 31-23, but Silovs outplayed than Daniil Tarasov, who finished with 18 saves, and the talent disparity was just too much for the crippled Cats to overcome."
