The Penguins Look to Hunt Some Ducks!

By: MF, The Pens Hockey Show

The Penguins are still in the mist of their road game sweep as they will take on the Anaheim Ducks tonight in Anaheim! Marcel Goc and Lee Stempniak where welcomed to the Penguins team last night. They seemed ready to play and hopefully they can contribute in tonight's game, helping the Penguins to a win. The Penguins played a hard fought game in San Jose, but where unable to capture the win in a 5-3 loss to the Sharks. It was a promising start and hopefully the Penguins can come out with the win tonight. They are going to have to play a tight game and limit the mistakes. It will be a tough, but good game for the Penguins tonight. The Ducks not only lead the Western Conference, but they have the most points in the NHL currently. The Penguins will have to be discipline and out work the Ducks. Time for a exciting game! Lets Go Pens!

The Pens lineup is as follows:

Forwards
Kuni, Sid, Stempniak
