PITTSBURGH — Tristan Jarry’s return to the crease was supposed to stabilize the Penguins. But the poor play of their No. 1 netminder cost them dearly in a pair of losses.
The latest came Thursday at PPG Paints Arena, when Jarry allowed a quartet of questionable goals in the first half of their 7-2 loss to the Edmonton Oilers.
Jarry, who rejoined the lineup Monday after missing nine games with a mysterious injury, let Oilers superstar Connor McDavid score from behind the net. He gave up two more tallies because he couldn’t corral rebounds. And like Monday’s meltdown versus the New York Islanders, the goalie had a costly giveaway.
