Why you should care: Two teams on two different trends Friday night in Wilkes-Barre. The Pens have won three in a row and are at the top of the East Division. The Phantoms have lost five of their last six. But you know when the puck drops at 7:05, none of this will matter between the two teams.

Other Game to Watch: Everybody is playing tonight. But one game that sticks out to me is out West, Chicago visits Utica. The Comets have started this season gangbusters but the Wolves are a good team.

Next Five Games: SYR 11/15, @ HER 11/16, POR 11/19, @ ALB 11/21, MCH 11/22
