NHL Scores: Sidney Crosby Debut as Captain One to Forget as Hurricanes Dump Penguins

Atlanta, Ga. 10/6/2007 9:56:26 AM

Sidney Crosby skated for the first time as the Pittsburgh Penguins captain but the Carolina Hurricanes skated around the hype and cruised to a 4-1 thumping on Friday night.

 

Eric Staal paced a Hurricanes attack with two goals in the first period and Carolina added a pair of goals in the second to jump to a 4-0 advantage. Andrew Ladd sent a wrist shot past Marc-Andre Fleury 14-minutes into the second while Jeffrey Hamilton added a power play goal three minutes later.

 

Offensively the Penguins offense was stagnant as Crosby was held to just one shot in nearly 20 minutes of ice time. Pittsburgh finally managed to get the puck in the back of the net with just under three minutes remaining when Mark Ricci put a tip-in past Cam Ward.

 

For his part, Ward was sensational as he stopped 33 shots on the night to help the Hurricanes improve to 1-0-1 on the year. The loss put the Penguins at 0-1-0 on the year.
