The Pittsburgh Penguins host the Arizona Coyotes tonight at PPG Paints Arena. Face-off is 7pm. WISR will join the game following Knoch basketball.
The Penguins will be without center Teddy Blueger for the next 6-to-8 weeks after he suffered a broken jaw in the victory over Winnipeg. The Jets Brenden Dillon hit Blueger with a high, hard shoulder. He had to have surgery Monday. Blueger has 17 points in 40 games this season.
The Pens are 26-10-4 in their 41 games and begin the night three points behind the first-place New York Rangers, with 57 points. The Rangers defeated Los Angeles 3-2 in a shoot-out last night. Washington lost to Vegas 1-0, and are two points behind the Penguins with 55 points. The Carolina Hurricanes have 56 points, but have played only 38 games.
