Strong effort in loss Hofer made 26 saves in a 4-2 loss Saturday to Pittsburgh.

Impact Hofer played a strong game, making several strong saves including breakaway saves on Rielly Smith and Jake Guentzel.

The Pens were up 3-1 at that point. Hofer has a bright future, and he'll certainly iron out his gaffes as his ice time increases.
