Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
Penguins’ win streak ends with OT loss to Kings
“The NHL’s hottest offense finally found a humbling moment this month, as the Penguins failed to beat Los Angeles goaltender Peter Budaj and witnessed the end of their win streak, which included 39 goals scored.”
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Pick apart this performance? No thanks, Penguins say
“It’s just that when you win seven in a row, score 39 goals while doing it and have converted seven of your past 14 power-play chances, it’s a littler easier to process the whole water-finding-its-level thing.”
Postgame: Kings 1, Penguins 0 (Overtime)
“The Penguins won’t see the Kings again unless they meet them in the Stanley Cup Final. A likely matchup? Maybe. Could be a stretch to put the Kings there, though.”

Seven-game winning streak snapped in OT loss
“The Penguins have faced defense-driven opponents throughout the season, but they’ve stayed loose and stuck to their speed game, persevering until they can put it away at or near the end.
Not this time.”
SB Nation – Pensburgh
Pens befuddled by Budaj, lose 1-0 in OT
“Penguins continue to play well, but Peter Budaj – though awkward at times flopping around in the net – is able to do the most important thing and keep the puck out of it. Shots up to 30-14 through 40 minutes of play with goals still 0-0.”
