Oct. 7/90 – New Jersey 4 @ Penguins 7

The scoring parade of the Washington game continued two nights later during the Penguins’ home opener against the Devils, which they won by the same 7-4 count. The sellout crowd of 16,164 rocked the Civic Arena foundations as the Pens put four goals behind Chris Terreri in a span of 2:27 in the third period to pull away and move to 2-0. The forces of young and old were on display, with veteran Bryan Trottier scoring his first two as a Penguin and rookie Jaromir Jagr getting his first.
