3:03- DEVILS SCORE! As the Pens PP ends the Devils get a rush. The trailing player Greene gets the puck and lets go of a wicked shot. It goes above the left shoulder of Flower and right in the top corner of the net. It bounces right back out and was reviewed. Call a good goal. 1-1 tie game. 


5:04- Pens get PP as the Devils are called for too many men on the ice.
