SLAP SHOTS

Great balls of fire, it's a hockey night in Pittsburgh! Your Pittsburgh Penguins faceoff against cross-state rivals the Philly Cryers tonight at Consol Energy Center. These are your keys to tonight's game. 1)Philly comes into the game at #3 in the league averaging 3.4 goals per game. Guess who sits atop the league with an average of 4 goals per game? That's right, baby, the Pens. Rock the Goals, Goals, Goals! 2)Philly also thinks their special because they're second in the NHL on the power play at a 31.8% clip. Not so fast, Philly. The Pens are rated #1 on the PP with 47.1%. Take advantage of the man-advantage! 3)The one aspect where the Pens are sorely lacking is on the penalty-kill where they're ranked 27th in the league with 72.7%. Tighten up that D and send the Cryers crying all the way back to Philly! Let's Go Pens!!!
