Penguins crush Flyers 7-0 as Arturs Silovs earns a shutout in Philadelphia
On Wednesday night in Philadelphia, the Pittsburgh Penguins dominated the Philadelphia Flyers with a 7-0 victory, as Arturs Silovs recorded a shutout and 19 saves. Evgeni Malkin, Hendrix Lapierre, and Filip Hallander each scored in the second period for the Penguins. Nick Robertson added two goals for Pittsburgh, while Sidney Crosby contributed an assist.
The Penguins' season concluded in April when they faced a similar 7-0 defeat at the hands of the Flyers in the first round of the playoffs. The Flyers left the winner to a raucous ovation in that match. Despite the loss, the Penguins aim to continue their winning streak and compete for a playoff series in the Eastern Conference.
Malkin signed a one-year contract extension to stay in Pittsburgh, and the team hopes to replicate the magic from their previous season and secure a playoff appearance.
