BREAKING: Penguins Eliminated In First Round By Flyers In Game 6 OT

It has been a magical run for the 2025-26 Pittsburgh Penguins, who most didn’t expect to be in the Stanley Cup Playoffs this season.

And, unfortunately, their Cup hopes this season have come to an end.

After a hard-fought series in which the Penguins won two straight after a 3-0 series deficit, Pittsburgh was eliminated in Game 6 on an overtime goal by Philadelphia Flyers’ defenseman Cam York. The Penguins controlled the majority of play throughout the game – including in overtime – but a lost faceoff and a shot through traffic ended their season in heartbreak.

Pittsburgh outshot Philadelphia, 42-32, and Flyers’ goaltender Dan Vladar earned the 42-save shutout for the Flyers. Arturs Silovs was outstanding in goal for the Penguins, stopping 31 of 32 shots in this game and he allowed just five goals on 82 shots in three games this series for a .939 save percentage.
