Last Game / Last Meeting: Last night in Hershey, the Pens lost 5-4 in a game that was much more in favor of the Bears than the score would indicate. Dustin Gazley scored two goals for the Bears and Tom Kostopoulos assisted twice for the Pens in the loss.

Record: For WBS: 28-18-2-3 (61 pts., 4th place East Division) — For HER: 28-16-3-3 (62 pts., 2nd place East Division)

Why you should care: Penguins can get back to second in the division and leapfrog the Bears and essentially get back to where they started minus two points when the weekend started. Pretty much a must win for the home team today.
