Media Kit

Last Game: Wednesday in Hershey, the Bears won in overtime 4-3. Ryan Potulny netted the game winner on the power play. Eric Tangradi made an immediate impact in returning from Pittsburgh, where he has been for the better part of the last two months by scoring a goal and an assist in the loss for the Penguins.

What to Watch For: The Penguins are out to finish this series tonight. If they want to do that, they will want to stick to the game plan that won them the first two games. That is, not letting Hershey score first, and scoring first, in the first period. Don’t be surprised to see a lineup change or two the way of the Penguins either.
