PITTSBURGH — They get no moral victory for this one. The Penguins were simply outclassed.
Led by Nathan MacKinnon, the former Hart Trophy runner-up, the Avalanche were clearly the better team in Tuesday’s 6-4 win over the Penguins at PPG Paints Arena. Some of the stats may suggest otherwise. But you know it when you see it.
The Avalanche were clearly the bigger, faster, more disciplined team this time.
