“It might help a little bit to be busy early, it gets you a feel for the puck,” Blomqvist said. “They were pressuring hard and I had to battle through it.”

Beauvillier then gave the Penguins a 2-1 lead at 2:55 of the second period, putting in a centering pass from Pettersson in front.

Pettersson pushed it to 4-1 at 5:28 with a wrist shot from the left point, chasing Husso.
“We got away from that first period game we had, and pucks started going in,” Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin said. “It felt like we were doing things right, but we had too many big-time breakdowns.”
