Last Game: Tuesday at home vs. the Manitoba Moose the Pens won 4-1. Nick Johnson had a goal in the game to extend his AHL point streak to seven games. For BRI: This past Saturday the Sound Tigers hosted the Springfield Falcons and lost 4-1. Justin DiBenedetto had the lone goal in the loss.

Record: For WBS, 38-14-0-0 (76 pts., 1st place East Division) For BRI, 19-25-3-3 (44 pts., 7th place Atlantic Division)

Why you should care: With what seems like half of our team in Pittsburgh on recall, things could get very interesting tonight. Bridgeport is the last place team in the Atlantic Division. However, the Penguins have had trouble with teams they are “supposed to beat.” That said, you can look for a tight game, but with the Sound Tigers turmoil in goal the Penguins should (emphasized) win this one.
