The Pittsburgh Penguins were able to hold off the Chicago Blackhawks in Chicago last night, 3-2. James Neal scored the first goal midway through the first period followed by goals coming from Evgeni Malkin and Deryk Engelland. The Penguins were able to hold onto that lead until the beginning of the third period when Patrick Sharp finally got Chicago on the scoreboard. Michael Frolik scored with 4 minutes remaining to trim the lead down to one but that was as close as they would get as Marc-Andre Fleury shut them down for the remainder of the game and gave the Penguins their third victory in a row.
