Pittsburgh’s Jake Guentzel, Nashville’s Pontus Aberg among rookies growing up quickly in Stanley Cup playoffs


It’s why Matt Murray entered this year feeling less like a rookie and more like a grizzled veteran after hoisting the Stanley Cup. To a lesser degree, Nashville’s Pontus Aberg is going through a similar growth spurt. Aberg had Nashville’s only goal in a 4-1 loss in Game 2 of the final against Pittsburgh. “We didn’t execute for whatever reason.”The Penguins had entered the final with a 25 per cent success rate on the power play, having scored 14 goals on 56 chances. “Listen, our power play has been really good for us, consistently throughout the course of this playoffs,” said Sullivan.
