Evgeni Malkin continued his torrid play, scoring his 31st and 32nd goals of the season as the Pittsburgh
Penguins rallied past the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-2 on Sunday night.
Chris Kunitz and Kris Letang each added a goal and two assists for the Penguins, who have won six straight at home. James Neal chipped in three assists as Pittsburgh kept Tampa Bay star Steven Stamkos in check.
The NHL's leading goal scorer was held pointless and mustered just one shot against Pittsburgh's Brent Johnson, who overcame some early jitters to make 21 saves.
Steve Downie scored twice in an 11-second span in the first period for Tampa Bay, but the Penguins roared back from a two-goal deficit for the second time in two days behind Malkin.
