Command Analysis
The Pittsburgh Penguins had a great start to the new season. The team easily defeated Tampa Bay with a score of 6:2. Despite the absence of their two main forwards Malkin and Crosby, the Penguins showed fantastic performance. Goaltender Jarry had a terrific game and saved for 92% of the shots.
Then the Penguins traveled to Florida, where they yielded to the Panthers in overtime (4:5 OT). Back at home, Pittsburgh crushed Chicago (5:2).
The Dallas Stars are on an away streak, and it is not going well for the team. In the last match of the preseason, the Stars were defeated at Colorado (2:4). But in the first game of the regular season, the Stars snatched a victory from the Rangers in overtime (3:2).
