SLAP SHOTS

    Get in the fastlane, Grandma, the bingo game is ready to roll; it's a great day for hockey! Our Pittsburgh Penguins close out their road trip tonight in Detroit when they faceoff against the Red Wings. These are your keys for tonight's game. 1)After a December to Remember, the Pens are suffering from an earl January swoon by dropping their last 2. Their penalty kill has gone AWOL. In Thursday's 4-1 loss to Ottawa, the Pens allowed 2 of 5 power play goals. For the week, they've given up 8 of 13. Kill 'em all! 2)In the 3 games played since their bye week, the Pens have allowed their opponent to score 1st in each game. Score early, score often, score BIG! 3)As a matter of fact, the Pens have only scored 3 goals in their past 2 games. Crank up the Goals, Goals, Goals! Let's Go Pens!!!!
