Things aren't getting any better for Matt Murray and the Pittsburgh Penguins.

The Pens unraveled after taking a 1-0 lead over the Ottawa Senators on Saturday, allowing three goals in just over four minutes to close out the opening frame. As a result, Murray was pulled in favor of Casey DeSmith to start the second period.

Ottawa ultimately took the contest 6-4.

Murray has dealt with injuries early in the 2018-19 campaign. The 24-year-old hasn't recorded a win since Oct. 25, and he entered Saturday's contest with a sub-.900 save percentage in four of his last five starts.

However, he's not the only member of the Penguins facing adversity. Pittsburgh, a team that's lost eight of its last 11 games, is last in the Eastern Conference and doesn't have its captain Sidney Crosby due to injury.
