SLAP SHOTS

Let's hunt moose on a Harley, it's a hockey night in Pittsburgh! Your Pittsburgh Penguins look to tame the Minnesota Wild tonight as they faceoff at Consol Energy Center. These are your keys to tonight's game. 1)Both teams like to take advantage of the man-advantage. Minnesota is 7th in the NHL on the PP at a 20.9% clip while the Pens lead the league at 26.9%. The Pens put the "Power" in power play! 2)These teams are not as evenly matched on the penalty-kill. The Pens are 3rd overall at 86.9%. Meanwhile, Minnesota is a paltry 25th at 78.6%. The Pens special teams is extra-special! 3)The Pens are 6th in the league in goals per game with a 3.0 average. Minnesota is a bottom-feeder at 29th, eking out 2.2 goals per game. Get the Consol rockin' to some Crue. Bring the Goals, Goals, Goals! Let's Go Pens!!!
