8:19 - MacDonald with a nasty cross-check on Hornqvist that sent him hard into the boards, face first. MacDonald will sit for cross-checking, but Hornqvist gets an embellishment penalty. Matching minors. I cannot believe they called that on Hornqvist. Even the announcers are wondering what is going on.

11:05 - A successful penalty kill for the Pens.

6:00 - Four-on-four play is over. The officiating in this game is very inconsistent. On another note, Letang still hasn't come back.
