Closer than we wanted it to be, but the Penguins wrap up home ice in the first round of the playoffs and are the 4 seed. They will face the Syracuse Crunch. This is the schedule:
Friday 4/24 home
Saturday 4/25 home
Wednesday 4/29 road
Thursday 4/30 road
Saturday 5/2 home
As for this game, Jayson Megna broke out and had a hat trick. The Penguins scored two power play goals.
Late push by Norfolk, playing in their last ever AHL game, made it interesting. Norfolk was down 5-1 and scored four three straight goals.
Regular season concludes Sunday in Allentown with the Penguins having absolutely nothing to play for. I wonder what team will dress for that game.
Full recap to follow shortly.
