PREGAME: Pens at Bruins

TD Garden. 7:00. ROOT.

The Pittsburgh Penguins (20-9-1) are in Boston tonight to take on the Bruins (18-8-2) for the third and final time this regular season. In their last 10 games, the Pens are 8-1-1, while the Bruins are 6-3-1. The Pens are (1-0-1) against the Bruins this year, their last game being an OT loss after Crosby tied the game with 0.3 seconds left in regulation.

The big thing tonight on the Pens' end are their injuries. Malkin did not make the trip tonight so he obviously will not be playing. Pascal Dupuis is a game time decision, but skated with the team today. Below is the projected line-up if Dupuis doesn't play...
