Point Earned, Streak Secured: Devils Outlast Penguins 2-1 in SO Thriller

  Photo: Andrew MacLean This thrilling Metropolitan Division clash was a goaltending masterclass from both ends of the ice. The New Jersey Devils ultimately prevailed in the shootout, defeating the Pittsburgh Penguins 2-1 to secure their second consecutive victory and extend their perfect season-opening home winning streak to seven games. The Devils' win was anchored by netminder Jake Allen, who stopped a stunning 33 of 34 shots through regulation and overtime. Across the ice, the resilient Penguins earned a crucial point, thanks to rookie Arturs Silovs—who turned away 23 of 24 shots while holding the Devils' potent offense in check, an impressive feat for an injury-riddled squad missing six key players.

   Dmitri Voronkov kicked things off in Ottawa with his 13th goal of the season to give Columbus a 1-0 lead. A centering pass from Kent Johnson skipped off Voronkov's stick before hitting Jacob Benard-Docker's skate, deflecting into the net. Brady Tkachuk tied it 1-1 on the power play after finishing a tic-tac-toe passing play... Tkachuk struck again just 48 seconds later, batting his own rebound out of the air during a 2-on-1 rush. Pushing it 3-1, Claude Giroux scored a shorthanded goal during a 2-on-1 rush with a wrist shot to the top right corner.


   Ridly Greig extends Ottawa's lead to 4-1 in the second period. Vladimir Tarasenko shot a point shot and Greig tipped it in. Boone Jenner cut it 4-2, beating Anton Forsberg glove side. Jenner shot from the top of the left face-off circle with a wrist shot. Getting Columbus another soon after, Jack Roslovic scored a wrist shot from a sharp angle, getting his third goal of the season. Brady Tkachuk made it a two-goal lead for Ottawa scoring his third of the game for a second career hat trick. Tkachuk shot from the top of the crease off a pass from Claude Giroux on the power play to make it 5-3.
