The Pittsburgh Penguins (28-21-9) have soundly outplayed three of their last four opponents but finally broke a four-game losing streak with a 3-2 OT win Saturday over the St. Louis Blues. The Penguins had lost five of their previous six and have won two in a row only twice in the last two months. They will attempt their second win in-a-row when they host the Tampa Bay Lightning (37-17-4) at PPG Paints Arena Sunday evening.
