Matt's STATS - Penguins scoring the first goal numbers -
I'd like to come out of my shell. I'm a TOTAL statistics geek/nerd. Thus, I keep my own personal statistics on the Penguins. Specifically, records and numbers when the team scores the first goal (since it's like all one hears on the Root Sports broadcasts out of Paul Steigerwald's mouth..... What MATTers : Matt's STATS - Penguins scoring the first goal numbers). I'd like to share what I've compiled for games played through the All-Star Break.
Below details the Penguins' records when they score the first, second, and third+ goals of the game, for both home and road contests. I've broken down the records into home and road games, and Pittsburgh's record against each division.
