Pens’ Path Ahead:
The Pens keep chuggin’ along when the Boston Bruins come to town on Saturday, followed quickly by the Toronto Maple Leafs making an appearance at PPG Paints Arena on Sunday. Next week the Pens go west and play games in Colorado and Vegas. That list of opponents about grows more daunting by the game...
Opponent Track:
The Flyers are riding high lately, 2-0-0 since return from the 4 Nations break and having scored six goals in each game (wins over Edmonton and the Pens). After today they head out to Winnipeg for a game and then return for a seven-game homestand that will eat up much of March. They sit five points and several teams below the final playoff spot and really need to keep at work in order to make any sort of run at it.
Season Series:
Pittsburgh will have to win tonight to earn a split with the Flyers. The Pens won 7-3 back in December, but have lost two games in February to the other team from the commonwealth. This will be the last PIT/PHI game of the season.
Hidden Stat:
Per Pens PR, Pittsburgh has points in nine-consecutive home games against Philadelphia (7-0-2).
