The Pittsburgh Penguins were rewarded with 10 seconds to spare.

The visiting team recorded 21 shots in the second period and 31 shots through 40 minutes of Wednesday's Game 3, and almost had nothing to show for it.

But at the 19:50 mark of the middle frame, Phil Kessel and Carl Hagelin finally got the best of Tampa Bay Lightning goalie Andrei Vasilevskiy.

Pittsburgh held a 53-28 advantage in terms of five-on-five shot attempts after 40 minutes, according to Hockey Stats.
