The Penguins are set to take on the St. Louis Blues at Consol Energy Center! It has been a weekend of Penguins hockey as they played the Tampa Bay Lightning yesterday and won in overtime 4-3! Evgeni Malkin had a stellar game and tallied four points during that game. The Penguins are in the hunt for the Eastern Conference lead, which is currently held by the Boston Bruins. The Bruins hold a commanding lead and are on a hot streak. The Penguins need to stay focus and play Pittsburgh hockey. With playing back to back games the Penguins need to get on the board early. They also need to limit the turnovers and stay out of their defensive zone. If they get trap in their own end it will ware them down early. Lets do this Penguins! Lets Go Pens!
