CROSBY LIGHTS THE LAMP FIRST
Sidney Crosby scored the first goal of the game tonight, the sixth time in this postseason he has done that. That ties an NHL record for one playoff year, previously done by Bobby Hull in 1962 and Fernando Pisani in 2006.

MALKIN ON A SPREE
Evgeni Malkin has 13 points over his last five games and he has five consecutive multiple-point games, tying a Penguins playoff record. Mario Lemieux had five successive multiple-point games in the 1991 and 1992 postseasons. The last NHL player with 13 points in a five-game span in the playoffs was Theo Fleury in 1995.

AN EVEN GAME
There were 11 goals in the Pittsburgh-Carolina game, all of which were at even strength. That's the most goals in a postseason game, with none on the power play or short-handed, since Vancouver's 6-5 win over Los Angeles in 1991.
