PPG Paints Arena / MF |
The Pittsburgh Penguins and Philadelphia Flyers are back in action for Game Three. The Penguins took Game Two and now hold a 2-1 series lead.
Both teams will be without key players. The Flyers will miss Sean Couturier in their lineup, while the Penguins deal with Patric Hornqvist being out with an upper-body injury.
Hornqvist's injury is a tough blow for the Penguins as he has been critical to their gameplay. They will have to push forward and get a better start tonight. The Penguins have a chance to wrap things up back in the Burgh for Game Five. They just need to play smart, stay focused/disciplined and put the pressure on Brian Elliot. Lets Go Pens!
