Why you should care: Penguins look to continue to carry momentum from Wednesday’s strong showing against the top team in the conference in Springfield into tonight’s game against a strong Bridgeport team. The Sound Tigers will be without ex-Penguin Colin McDonald, who was suspended two games by the AHL earlier this week for a match penalty for boarding.
