East Divison Final Game 2

AHL Game: J2

Series: CHA leads 1-0 (best of seven)

Media Kit

Last Game: Thursday night in Wilkes-Barre, the Checkers won 3-2 behind two goals by Jon Matsumoto.

What to watch for: Pens knew at the end of Game 1 that a better effort was needed. Look for it in Game 2. Whether the Checkers allow for it is a different story. The Checkers will want to duplicate the effort from Thursday night, that is get goals from unsung guys like Matsumoto. It isn’t a “must win” game by any means, but by the standards of level of skill of opponent, tonight can be construed as a must win game for the Penguins.
