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.
