SLAP SHOTS

Great balls of fire, it's a great day for hockey! Your Pittsburgh Penguins look to get back in the win column this afternoon on the home ice of Consol Energy Center as they battle the New York Strangers. These are your keys for today's game. 1)The Strangers are coming off a 2-1 win over Columbus on Friday night. The Pens need a win after their 6-3 drubbing at the hands of the Isles on Friday. Pittsburgh has had a problem with potential playoff opponents all season: the Isles, the Habs, the Strangers, etc. This was also an issue during the Bylsma era. Time to get the monkey off their back. Find the net and find the W! 2)The Pens are 10-5-4 at home this season. We must protect this house! 3)The Strangers are 4th in the league in goals against giving up an average of 2.3 per game. The Pens rank 5th overall in goals per game at 3.0. Get fired up, crank up the Crue and the Goals, Goals, Goals! Let's Go Pens!!!
