PREGAME: Pens @ Blackhawks. Stadium Series.

Soldier Field. 8:00. NBC.


It's a Stadium Series night in Chicago tonight, and the Pens (40-15-4) will be facing the defending Stanley Cup champions, the Blackhawks (35-12-14), in a *chilly* 18 degree outdoor match.

We're not sure if you've heard (sarcasm), but this will be the first time that Crosby and Toews have ever played against each other in the NHL. Both teams are coming off a loss (Pens to Canadiens in SO, Blackhawks to Rangers in reg), and the last time the Pens faced the Blackhawks was in December of 2011, Pens won 3-2.

All in all, tonight's going to be a pretty fun game to watch.
