That's it for G Bill Wolfenbarger after giving up 3 goals on just 9 shots. G Martin King doesn't do much better as he gives up the Pens 4th goal at 8:45 when LW Jesse Herauf gets his 9th of the season to make it 4-0. Montreal has yet to register a shot. The shots end up 16-8 for Pittsburgh and a 4-0 lead.
