SLAP SHOTS

     How much friend chicken can you eat; it's a great day for hockey! Our Pittsburgh Penguins take their show on the road to New Jersey today to faceoff against the Devils in the 2nd of a back-to-back. These are your keys for today's game. 1)The Pens need to get back in the win column following yesterday's 4-2 loss to Calgary. Gimme a W! 2)The Pens are 5-4-1 in their last 10. New Jersey is 3-7-0. The Pens have lost 7 of the last 8 contests in New Jersey. The Devils are 5 points behind the Pens for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. Every point counts. Take 2! 3)This trip to Jersey could be a blessing in disguise. The Devils are 30th in goals per game with a 2.2 average. They'll also start their backup goalie today (starter Corey Schneider was injured Friday in Dallas). What better way to start a 4-game road trip than to get in the win column. Pack up the Goals, Goals, Goals! Let's Go Pens!!!
