Last Game: Last night at home against the Milwaukee Admirals the Penguins won 5-4 in overtime. Garrett Wilson had a hat trick in the first period but J-S Dea scored the game winner in overtime. For Rochester, the Americans hosted the Hartford Wolf Pack and lost 5-4 in a shootout. Garret Ross had a goal, good enough to get him second star honors.

Referee(s): Alex Garon / Brandon Schrader

Linesmen: Bob Goodman / Luke Murray

Why You Should Care: Penguins recipe for success last night was scoring first against Milwaukee, so that should be the blueprint for tonight as well. The Americans will be coming in ornery having lost to a team they should have beat last night.

Television: Tonight’s Penguins game will be carried live on WBRE, Channel 28, local in the Wilkes-Barre area.
