WILKES-BARRE TWP. \u2014 After opening the season with seven straight wins, the Wilkes-Barre\/Scranton Penguins find themselves in a losing skid.<\/p>\n
Travis Boyd scored four minutes into overtime as Toronto netted four straight goals in a 4-3 win over the Pens on Wednesday night at Mohegan Arena.<\/p>\n
Wilkes-Barre\/Scranton lost three of its last four games heading into the weekend, but remain on top of the Atlantic Division by one point over Providence.<\/p>\n
The locals couldn\u2019t have asked for a better start. Tristian Broz\u2019s fifth goal of the year gave WBS a 1-0 lead at the first intermission, and back-to-back scores by Atley Calvert and Bokondji Imama gave the Pens a three-goal lead after two.<\/p>\n
But the Marlies scored three times in the third period to knot it up at 3, and Boyd\u2019s goal at the 4:18 mark of overtime sealed the victory.<\/p>\n
Filip Larsson got the start in goal, and stopped 19 of the 23 shots.<\/p>\n
Wilkes-Barre\/Scranton has two games this weekend, traveling to Rochester on Friday and hosting Utica on Saturday. It\u2019s the first meeting with Rochester this season, while the Pens are 0-1 against the Comets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"WILKES-BARRE TWP. \u2014 After opening the season with seven straight wins, the Wilkes-Barre\/Scranton Penguins find themselves in a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7094,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[1902,178,180,179,726],"class_list":{"0":"post-26345","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-scranton","8":"tag-penguins","9":"tag-scranton","10":"tag-scranton-headlines","11":"tag-scranton-news","12":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26345","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26345"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26345\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7094"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26345"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26345"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26345"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
