Why you should care: Wilkes-Barre opens up the weekend on the road for a two game trip to the Northeast Division. Connecticut has been at the top of the Northeast for a good chunk of the season and always plays the Penguins tough. Pens will need to be on their game tonight if they want top walk out of the Insurance Capital with two points in their pocket. Oh, and they can also clinch a spot at the playoffs table with a win tonight as well.
