A Ben Lovejoy point shot gave the Pittsburgh Penguins an early Game 3 lead during the first period, and another helped his team reclaim its one-goal advantage before the end of the second.
With less than a minute remaining in the middle frame, Lovejoy's long wrister was tipped in front by Patric Hornqvist, sneaking under the right arm of Martin Jones to put the Penguins up 2-1 over the Sharks heading into the third.
