US EditionPenguins Blank Predators 4-0 as Crosby and Malkin Power Global Series Split
Sergey Murashov recorded his first NHL win and shutout as the Penguins scored three first-period goals and held Nashville scoreless in the NHL Global Series.
- On Nov. 16, the Pittsburgh Penguins defeated the Nashville Predators 4-0 at Avicii Arena in Stockholm, with Sergey Murashov earning his first NHL victory and shutout.
- After an explosive opening 20 minutes, the Penguins built a 3-0 first-period lead on goals by Wotherspoon, Malkin, and Crosby, holding Nashville to just two shots.
- Nashville's three failed power plays, including a 5-on-3, proved costly as an apparent Predators power-play goal was overturned for goaltender interference and Andrew Brunette declined to challenge.
- The two-game series concluded in a split as both teams head home, with Pittsburgh hosting the Minnesota Wild on Nov. 21 and Nashville facing the Colorado Avalanche on Nov. 22.
- As the NHL continues staging regular-season games overseas, this was the league's 48th regular-season game outside North America and the Penguins' first Stockholm visit since 2008.
