Trevor Daley, Carl Hagelin and Chris Kunitz scored a goal each Saturday, sending the Pittsburgh Penguins past Philadelphia 4-1 and six points ahead of Philadelphia for one of the final two Eastern Conference playoff spots. The Penguins have won five straight and six of seven - all against Metropolitan Division opponents. Pittsburgh goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury made 16 saves in earning his 31st victory of the season but was hardly challenged by the Flyers.
