This is going to be another challenging week for the Pittsburgh Penguins, and a very important week.
Perhaps even a make-or-break week for where their season is going to go.
They enter the week riding a seven-game losing streak, and are going to have to snap it on the road with three more road games, including another set of back-to-backs later in the week.
The potential good news? The next three teams on the schedule are all teams that are also currently struggling.
They start the week on Wednesday night in Washington against a Capitals team that is just 1-2-2 in its past five games.
