The Pittsburgh Penguins were able to shut out the New York Islands 3-0, thanks in part to goalie Marc-Andre Fleury stopping 33 shots on goal. This was the first match between the two rivals since their match up in February that saw the penalty minutes pile up, but this go-round there wasn't much fighting.
