Last Game: Last Saturday in Binghamton, the Pens lost 2-1. Nick Johnson scored the lone goal for the Pens. For the Moose, last Saturday in Toronto Manitoba won 3-1. Ryan Cruthers had a goal and an assist in the win.

Record: For WBS, 34-12-0-0 (68 pts., 1st place East Division) For MTB, 26-14-1-5 (58 pts., 2nd place North Division)

Why you should care: Manitoba is a good opponent coming in from the AHL’s North Division. Eddie Lack is a great young goaltender. Sami Salo is coming down from parent Vancouver on a conditioning stint. This is not going to be an easy game for the Pens. If they win, it’ll be a very good sign because if the Pens can beat the Moose they can beat any team.
