The Pittsburgh Penguins have been playing some strikingly good hockey in recent weeks, all things considered. Then came Tuesday night in Tampa Bay. The Penguins played one of their worst games of the season and were thoroughly outclassed by the Tampa Bay Lightning in a 6-1 setback that was every bit as one-sided as the score would indicate.

An energetic and structured start quickly became a blowout loss, ending Penguins goalie Tristan Jarry’s recent run of stellar play. Later in the first period, the Tampa Bay Lightning scored four goals in 3:47, claiming a 4-0 lead and ultimately a 6-1 win at Amalie Arena on Tuesday.
