PITTSBURGH (AP) --- Logan Cooley completed a hat trick against his hometown
team with a second left, Mikhail Sergachev scored at 3:27 of overtime and the
Utah Mammoth stunned the Pittsburgh Penguins 4-3 on Thursday night.
After Ben Kindel put Pittsburgh ahead 3-2 with 25 seconds left, Cooley ---
playing his third NHL game in Pittsburgh --- batted the puck in from the left
side of the net for sixth goal in four games and seventh of the season.
Cooley became the third Pittsburgh native with a hat trick against the
Penguins, joining Brandon Saad and R.J. Umberger. At age 5, Cooley took part in
Sidney Crosby's first Little Penguins Learn to Play Hockey program.
Cooley scored for the first time in seven games against Pittsburgh. He had two
first-period goals to give the Mammoth an early 2-0 lead, and scored in the
third for his third career hat trick.
In overtime, Sergachev beat Arturs Silovs off a rebound in front.
Sebastian Cossa stopped 31 shots for the Mammoth, who have won three of their
last five games overall. Utah is 5-0-0 after a loss and 8-0-0 when leading
after two periods.
Rickard Rakell had a short-handed goal, and Erik Karlsson also scored for
Pittsburgh. Silovs made 30 saves.

Penguins: At Montreal on Saturday night.
