Last Game / Last Meeting: Yesterday, the Pens were embarrassed on home ice and lost 6-0. Cody Eakin scored two goals and Braden Holtby had a 28 save shutout.

Record: For WBS: 16-10-1-4 (37 pts., 3rd place East Division) For HER: 18-8-3-2 (41 pts., 1st place East Division)

Why you should care: Penguins look to repay the favor from last night in the form of a win tonight. They cannot afford to lose anymore points to the Bears. I am stopping short of calling this a “must win” – but it certainly has the structure to be one.
