Why You Should Care: Expect Michael Leighton in net for the Pens tonight as Wilkes-Barre plays it’s final regular season home game before concluding the 2017-18 season with four on the road. There is still some work to do as the Penguins need one point to cinch up a spot in the postseason. They are most likely turning to their veteran net minder to get them across the line.

Television: Tonights game will be broadcast locally on WBRE which is Channel 28 on my TV dial, I don’t know about yours.

Other Game to Watch: Providence travels to Bridgeport. A Bruins win will clinch the playoffs for the Penguins no matter what happens tonight with the Devils.
