Penguins' Patric Hornqvist: Net front presence a hit

Hornqvist potted a pair of goals Tuesday against Nashville --including his second game-winner of the season.

Analysis:

He has four goals in the last four games, and 12 of his 14 goals this season have come from within 15 feet, according to Root Sports. Hornqvist now has eight power-play markers, only two off his career-high 10. The winger, who registered four shots on goal Tuesday, leads Pittsburgh in that category with 149 -- three more than the injured Evgeni Malkin (knee).
