The Pittsburgh Penguins will welcome the Columbus Blue Jackets to PPG Paints Arena for an NHL game on Tuesday. The Penguins won 6-2 against the Blues in their last game. The last two weeks were difficult for Pittsburgh Penguins forward Kasperi Kapanen, as he watched from the press box. The last two games have been rewarding for Kapanen and the Penguins. Kapanen scored his second career hat trick and the Penguins beat the St. Louis Blues 6-2 on Saturday night.
Kapanen was floated in and out of the lineup for inconsistent play in nine of 10 games recently. But he responded with the game-winner on Thursday against Vegas and then his first hat trick since Nov. 6, 2021, during a home game against Minnesota. “We’re thrilled for him,” Penguins coach Mike Sullivan said. “Obviously, it’s not an easy experience when you’re out of the lineup. But I think (Kapanen) has responded unbelievably well and we’re certainly thrilled for him.”
The Blue Jackets on the other hand lost 2-4 against the Red Wings in their last game. Marcus Bjork and Kent Johnson scored for Columbus, which has lost four straight at home. Boone Jenner had two assists and Joonas Korpisalo stopped 31 shots.
Czarnik started the scoring at 6:34 of the first, redirecting a centering pass from Jonatan Berggren. “The biggest thing for us is just get our feet moving and create energy for our lines and for our team,” Czarnik said. “If we are able to do that, we’re effective, and so far, we’ve been able to.”
