The Penguins had just 12 shots in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final, but five — FIVE — went in, toppling Nashville 5-3 to take a 1-0 series lead. The game had everything (except a lot of Penguins shots), including a disallowed goal on a controversial offsides challenge, a 3-0 Pens lead, a catfish thrown onto the ice that sparked a Predators' comeback, and a late, 3rd-period goal by Jake Guentzel that sealed the game and helped the Penguins escape. Pittsburgh went more than 37 minutes without a shot on goal, but managed to put four shots past Pekka Rinne, adding an empty netter to seal the victory. Here's our full recap of a wild and wacky Game 1.

As the number of self-driving car companies in Pittsburgh continues to grow, so do their respective approaches to the cars' sensors. The lidar is the system of sensors (cameras, radar, light detection and more) that recreates the perception of a human driver and, per the Post-Gazette, how those sensors look can make all the difference. For example, Uber's self-driving cars can't be missed with their lidar on top, but Delphi's cars blend in and look like human-driven cars, reported the PG. Read more about how the sensors do — and don't — work.

Stone lions line Fourth Avenue, Downtown, and per WESA, the big cats are there with one mission: to guard. Fourth Avenue was once Pittsburgh’s financial district and the lions were there to protect valuables and show Pittsburghers that their money was safe in the various banks, WESA reported. The most recognizable are the Dollar Bank lions at Fourth Avenue and Smithfield Street. Spoiler: The lions don’t have names, but you should keep reading anyways.
