You want to at least generate momentum if the puck\u2019s not going in. But at the same time, you want to see the puck go in. Doing a lot of good things and not getting results is one thing. \u2026 It was good we were able to cash in.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Contrast that to the Penguins, who again failed to convert on a 5-on-3 power play, just as they failed in Game 5, and were 0-for-3 on the power play Friday night.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe special teams were the difference,\u201d Penguins coach Mike Sullivan said. \u201cWe\u2019ve got to be better on the power play.
