Penguins' Matt Murray: Evens series with Game 2 win Monday

Murray stopped 19 of 21 shots en route to a 3-2 overtime win over the Lightning in Game 2 on Monday.

Analysis:

The kid just keeps winning, as he's now up to an 8-3 record to go along with a 2.00 GAA and .930 save percentage this postseason. Even though veteran starter Marc-Andre Fleury has been available for several games now after recovering from a concussion, Murray has continued to perform admirably in Pittsburgh's crease. With the series shifting to Tampa for Game 3 on Wednesday, it's safe to assume that the rookie will be between the pipes yet again.
