| PPG Paints Arena / MF |
The Pittsburgh Penguins are back in a familiar situation as the Ottawa Senators forced a Game Seven showdown in Pittsburgh with a 2-1 victory in Game Six on Tuesday.
Tonight's game is do or die for both teams. The Penguins will have to focus on playing smart, handling momentum shifts, putting pucks on net whenever they can, and getting traffic in front. Craig Anderson has been great for the Senators with an expectation during Game Five. He will bring his 'A' game once again and the Penguins need to disrupt his focus as they did in Game Five.
The Penguins must put it all on the line tonight as the Stanley Cup Final awaits the victor. Lets Go Pens!
The Pens lineup is as follows:
Forwards
Guentzel - Cullen - Rust
Wilson - Malkin - Kessel
Hagelin - Bonino - Rowney
Kunitz - Cullen - Sheary
Defense
Dumoulin - Hainsey
Maatta - Daley
Cole - Schultz
Murray in the net!
