The Penguins mix it up from the first game, Cody Ceci takes a seat and Chad Ruhwedel cycles in. D-pairs are adjusted to put the best four players on the top two pairs. Novel concept!
First period
For a team that went down 3-0, the Pens actually started fairly decently against the Flyers. Shots were 5-0 early. Then Pittsburgh got called for their second too many men call in as many games this season. The PK was even doing well, but Chad Ruhwedel got called for a trip as it was dying down, giving the Flyers another crack at it.
