Rangers blast Penguins 8-4 with goals from 8 players

Artemi Panarin had a goal and three assists, Adam Fox had a goal and two assists and the New York Rangers beat the Pittsburgh Penguins 8-4

APRIL 7, 2021 • Associated Press

Struggles in relief DeSmith allowed four goals on 14 shots in the final two periods of Tuesday's 8-4 loss to the Rangers after replacing Tristan Jarry.

Impact On one hand, DeSmith gave up as many goals in two periods as Jarry did in one. On the other, DeSmith has now allowed 10 goals in his last five periods. His struggles over the past two games are especially shocking considering DeSmith had allowed only six goals in his previous seven appearances. It remains to be seen which goaltender Pittsburgh tabs for Thursday's rematch with the Rangers.

Marchand carries Bruins' big 2nd and past Penguins, 7-5

Brad Marchand had two of his three goals and set up another in Boston’s five-goal second period

APRIL 3, 2021 • Associated Press

Buried by Bruins DeSmith stopped 21 of 27 shots in Saturday's 7-5 loss to the Bruins.

Impact Boston's final goal was scored into an empty net. DeSmith was beaten five times in the second period alone, and the six goals allowed equaled his total from his prior seven appearances combined. Despite the shellacking, the 29-year-old still has a 2.13 GAA and .922 save percentage on the season, but with Tristan Jarry (upper body) expected to return to action next week, DeSmith's brief period as the team's clear No. 1 netminder could end on a sour note.

APRIL 3, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Starting in Boston DeSmith will guard the road goal during Saturday's matchup with the Bruins, Matt Vensel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Impact DeSmith has been razor sharp recently, going 3-0-0 while maintaining an exceptional 0.82 GAA and .973 save percentage through his last four appearances. The 29-year-old netminder will attempt to pick up a fourth straight win in a road matchup with a Boston team that's averaging 2.94 goals per game at home this year, 19th in the NHL.

Penguins end long winless drought in Boston; beat Bruins 4-1

Mike Matheson scored a highlight-reel goal after a lengthy rush, and the surging Pittsburgh Penguins ended a long winless drought in Boston with a 4-1 victory over the Bruins

APRIL 2, 2021 • Associated Press

Long overdue road win DeSmith made 30 saves in a 4-1 over Boston on Thursday.

Impact The only goal that got past him was a Brad Marchand redirect from the left side of the slot. DeSmith earns the distinction of being in the blue paint when the Pens snapped a 10-game road losing streak -- dating back to 2014 -- against the Bruins. DeSmith will continue to be the top tender while Tristan Jarry (upper body) remains sidelined.

Between pipes against Bruins DeSmith will tend the twine for Thursday's road clash with the Bruins.

Impact DeSmith has been rock solid in his last five contests in which he posted a 3-1-0 record, 0.86 GAA and .971 save percentage. The 29-year-old netminder will guard the crease after starter Tristan Jarry (upper body) picked up an injury versus the Islanders on Monday. As long as Jarry is sidelined, which hasn't been announced by the club, DeSmith figures to carry the load for the Pens.

Solid in relief Monday DeSmith stopped 19 of the 20 shots he faced after replacing Tristan Jarry (upper body) to begin the second period of Monday's 2-1 win over the Islanders.

Impact Aside from a power-play tally by Matt Martin, DeSmith held down the fort, although Jarry still got credit for the win as he exited the game with the lead. DeSmith has a stellar 1.91 GAA and .929 save percentage on the season, and if Jarry's injury proves to be serious, he would be in line for a heavy workload as the Pens' No. 1 netminder.
