Dylan Ferguson rocks in NHL debut


The Pittsburgh Penguins knew next to nothing about Dylan Ferguson when they took the ice on Monday night.

They're experts now. Having a nomadic goaltender almost single-handedly send you to a fourth straight loss will do that.

Ferguson made 48 saves in his first NHL start as Ottawa dented Pittsburgh's increasingly iffy playoff chances in a 2-1 victory. It was quite a performance by the 24-year-old Ferguson, who was at an airport earlier this month assuming he was heading from one level of the minors to another before the goalie-depleted Senators signed him.
