PITTSBURGH, March 26 (UPI) -- Marc-Andre Fleury and Tomas Vokoun combined for a 37-save shutout Tuesday and the Pittsburgh Penguins posted a 13th straight win, 1-0 over Montreal.

Fleury turned aside all 25 shots he saw over the first two periods before exiting the contest. He was knocked over by teammate Tyler Kennedy in the second period as Kennedy was pursuing a Montreal attacker near the goal.
