Media Kit

Last Game / Last Meeting: Last night before a sold out crowd on local television Alex Grant had a career night with two goals and three assists, all on power plays as the Pens rolled to a 6-2 win.

Record: For WBS: 24-12-1-4 (53 pts., 2nd place East Division) For SYR: 18-16-3-2 (41 pts., 4th place East Division)

Why you should care: These Crunch are a pesky group. I would expect a much better effort from them today. Look for Brad Thiessen and Iiro Tarkki to get the starts in net. The Pens can cap off another perfect weekend with another focused effort and really start putting the heat back on the leaders in the Conference.
