Media Kit

Last Game: Saturday night in Wilkes-Barre, the Pens shutout the Checkers 3-0 via a Brad Thiessen shutout. Brett Sterling, Chris Collins and Ryan Craig scored the goals.

What to watch for: Charlotte was basically pushed around in Game 2, as the Pens dominated the physical aspect of the game. Look for Charlotte to try and match the hitting and make adjustments on the near misses they had in Game 2 in scoring. For the Pens, they have been a better road playoff team than home playoff team. Charlotte is a different animal however with the comforts of home.
