Why You Should Care: Penguins need a good effort here in front of what likely is going to be a sold out crowd against the Phantoms who are awful on the road. Last night they ran into a hot goalie who shut them down. Tonight they need to adjust and shut the Phantoms down as don’t look now, but are starting to slowly turn things around.
