The Penguins are rolling with the same lines and setup and personnel as yesterday, minus the normal goalie rotation that sees Matt Murray in the crease.
As always with Pens and Capitals, it’s a tight game, emotions are running high and just about every inch of ice is contested tooth and nail. In the beginning Pittsburgh didn’t look like they had a lot going on, and as totally usual in afternoon games they fell behind 1-0. Nice play by Jakub Vrana to show off his speed and get a step around Marcus Pettersson for a breakaway.
