The Penguins look to take a commanding lead on the road in Game 3. The depth of the Penguins has been the difference. Phil Kessel has been the star for Pittsburgh, after scoring his 10th goal and 19th point of the playoffs in Game 2. Their defense has been the biggest surprise as rookie goaltender Matt Murray has turned aside 45-of-48 shots in two games, which isn’t a lot of shots. That’s because the Pittsburgh defense has done a solid job in limiting shots by the Sharks.
