The Pens have fallen to 6th in the East when they were tied for 4th in points just this past weekend. That goes to show that every game is important. The Calgary Flames, the Pens opponent tonight, are a great team that has been overshadowed by other elite teams in the West this season. However, that does not mean that anyone underestimates them, at least they shouldn't. They play a physical game and tight games. The Pens need to come out strong and never let up. A lead against this team is no guarantee, and the Pens will have to battle tonight.
Little Fact:
Evgeni Malkin will play in his 235th consecutive game, tying for the third-longest streak in Penguins history (Ron Stackhouse, 235).
