After getting taken to overtime twice in a row by the lowly Buffalo Sabres, David Quinn’s squad has its work cut out for it tonight. Tristan Jarry, Casey DeSmith, and the rest of the Pittsburgh Penguins are in town to play the Rangers in a two game set starting tonight, with the second game taking place two days from now.
Vitali Kravtsov made his NHL debut on Saturday, and will remain in the lineup skating on a line with Kevin Rooney and Phil Di Giuseppe. The Russian rookie was dead last among the team’s skaters in ice time against Buffalo, but he should earn more minute tonight as he continues his adjustment to the NHL.
