vs.

Home Game 6

AHL Game: 215

Who: Binghamton Senators

Where: Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plaza

When: 7:05 p.m. EST

Last Game: This past Sunday in Rochester the Pens won 2-1. Ryan Craig had a goal and Brad Thiessen stopped 19 of 20 shots to improve to 6-0-0-0. For Bingo, this past Wednesday the Sens lost at home to Rochester 6-4.  Bobby Butler scored his 10th goal of the season, tops among AHL rookies.

Record: For WBS, 10-1-0-0 (20 pts., 1st place East Division) For BNG, 6-5-1-1 (14 pts., 5th place East Division)

Last Meeting: October 23 in Wilkes-Barre, the Pens won in a shootout 2-1. Defenseman Steve Wagner had the regulation goal. Corey Locke scored with 10.6 seconds left in regulation to tie the game and Chris Conner deftly stickhandled around a diving Barry Brust in the shootout to seal the Pens win.

Why you should care: Despite the 5th place standings in the East Division at the present, the Sens are better than this. They have been dealing with a turnstile of call-ups to parent Ottawa and from ECHL affiliate Elmira. For Wilkes-Barre it is a chance to seperate itself even further from foes in the East Division.
