Jake Guentzel’s return to Pittsburgh went very well for the home team and their fans but not very well for the visitors as the Hurricanes lost, 4-1 to the Penguins on Tuesday night.
Rod Brind’Amour labeled his team’s performance as “flat”. He also mentioned that his team needed to get to the front of the net.
“We’ve got to score more than one.....We were flat tonight, that’s for sure.”
The Canes did manage 39 shots on goal, compared to 22 for the Pens, but they were mostly harmless shots that former Carolina goalie Alex Nedeljkovic stopped easily.
