Last Game: Saturday night in Wilkes-Barre in Game 2 the Pens were shutout 2-0 by Dustin Tokarski. Paul Szczechura had the game winning goal in the second period and ex-Penguin Marc-Antoine Pouliot iced the game late with an empty net goal.

What to watch for: The team that Pens fans everywhere wanted over the Binghamton Senators has the hometown Pens in a deep hole down 0-2. The Pens must, must, must, must win this game to have ANY hope of staging a comeback in the series. The Pens were the best team in the regular season. The Norfolk Admirals have their full attention. The Coach of the Year in John Hynes has had two full days to prepare his troops for this game. You need to score goals to win games. So look for big games out of Brett Sterling, Ben Street and Keven Veilleux. Will Tim Wallace return? Will there be any lineup changes? We all find out at 7:15 tonight.
