Pittsburgh Penguins blank Panthers 4-0 to spoil Florida goalie Cooper Black's record-setting NHL debut

Pittsburgh's Arturs Silovs stopped 25 shots to spoil the history-making debut of Florida counterpart Cooper Black as the Penguins beat the Panthers 4-0 on Thursday.Black, who, at 6-foot-9, became the tallest goalie ever to appear in an NHL regular-season game, made 18 saves, but it wasn't enough to stop the Panthers from dropping their second game in as many nights.Nick Robertson scored twice for Pittsburgh. Hendrix Lapierre and Evgeni Malkin both finished with a goal and an assist as the Penguins shook off a miserable Western Conference road trip in which they were badly outplayed in losses to Chicago, Colorado, Vegas and Utah.The trip ended on Tuesday when 19-year-old forward Ben Kindel collapsed during the flight back to Pittsburgh. Kindel spent the night in a Salt Lake City hospital for observation and returned to the Penguins' facility on Thursday. The team placed him on injured reserve but is hopeful he may be able to return to practice as early as next week.Pittsburgh coach Dan
