The Penguins dug their way out of a hole, and Alex Nedljkovic played a big role in their win over the Flyers…by getting taken out of the game. Paul Steigerwald reports.
Phil Thomasino had the other Penguins goal.
Coach Mike Sullivan says he has no problem with Ndeljkovic’s fiery reaction to getting pulled.
Sullivan says Geno Malkin can get hot and carry a team.
Forward Michael Bunting had an appendectomy yesterday and is out indefinitely. Forward Boko Imama was activated from the injured list and played last night. Matt Nieto cleared waivers and was sent to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton and Emil Bemstrom was called up.
The Penguins play three games in the next four days, starting with the Bruins and Maple Leafs tomorrow afternoon and Sunday in Pittsburgh, and then a trip west to play the Avalanche in Denver on Tuesday.
