Penguins handle Flyers for 2-0 series lead
Losing on an Evgeni Malkin goal, or Sidney Crosby goal, the Philadelphia Flyers might understand. Losing to the Pittsburgh Penguins on fourth-line forward Max Talbot's goal will be very difficult for the Flyers to deal with, especially in a series that is fast slipping away from them. Talbot, a checking line forward on a team renowned for its stars, scored the go-ahead goal midway through the third period and the Penguins took a two-game lead in the Eastern Conference finals by beating the Flyers 4-2 Sunday night.
