Penguins Beat Predators In Sweden

STOCKHOLM (AP) — Star forwards Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin led the Pittsburgh Penguins to a 4-0 victory over the Nashville Predators to split their Global Series in Sweden. Crosby and Malkin scored a little over two minutes apart in the first period. The Penguins bounced back from a 2-1 defeat Friday, snapping a three-game losing streak. Rookie goaltender Sergei Murashov stopped 21 shots for his first NHL victory. The NHL has played games in Europe since 2008 to grow its fan base. Pittsburgh and Nashville previously met in Japan 25 years ago.
