Penguins Game 50, Ruffling Feathers; Lines, Notes
This story originally appeared on pittsburghhockeynow.com
The Pittsburgh Penguins (20-21-8) again have a chance to get back to hockey .500, but more importantly, stack wins on a pivotal seven-game road trip. Thus far, the Penguins are 2-1-0 in the first three games and inching back into the continually mediocre middle of the Eastern Conference playoff race. They’ll face the struggling Anaheim Ducks (18-23-6) at the Honda Center on Thursday.
The puck drops just after 10 p.m. EST.
The Penguins are currently at least four points out of a playoff spot; they are four points behind the Ottawa Senators, who have one game in hand. Including Ottawa, there are five teams between the Penguins and that playoff spot the team covets.
