Anaheim is destined for the NHL draft lottery. The Penguins have been postseason regulars for the better part of two decades.
Yet Pittsburgh has reached the season's midway point struggling to play with any consistency. Injuries along the blue line to veteran defenseman Kris Letang and Jeff Petry haven't helped. Their absence has dampened Pittsburgh's firepower and contributed to a sluggish stretch in which goals have been hard to come by.
Pittsburgh called up forward Jonathan Gruden to help bring a little bit of energy to the fourth line and the rookie dinged the post with a shot in the first period, Zucker, whose spirited play has been one of the few bright spots of late, gave the Penguins the lead 4:16 into the first. Henrique tied it 17:50 into the first when he finished off a flurry in front of the Pittsburgh net by flipping a rebound by DeSmith, who had turned aside a pair of shots but was on all fours when Henrique tapped in the power-play goal.
