Gameday: Pens vs Sens.

Consol Energy Center. 7:30. Root.

Game 82 of what was actually a pretty remarkable season by the Penguins. Looking back on it, it was one of the better seasons that they've had in recent memory. This game is meaningless for both teams as Ottawa will be on the golf course tomorrow and the Penguins start prepping for Columbus tomorrow. Zatkoff is in net as he should be and pretty sure the rest of the lineup is a Game Time Decision. We could care less about this game because we're ready for this upcoming Columbus series.

If you want a playoff preview, it will probably come in the next few days but here are the playoff matchups for Round 1.

Pacific

1. Anaheim vs 4. Dallas

2. San Jose vs 3. Los Angeles

Central

1. Colorado vs 4. Minnesota

2. St. Louis vs 3. Chicago

(A cup contender is going down in Round 1 in 2 of those series) Sign us up for these matchups.

Metropolitan

1. Pittsburgh vs 4. Columbus

2. NY Rangers vs 3. Philadelphia

Atlantic

1. Boston vs 4. Detroit

2. Montreal vs 3. Tampa Bay

Sign us up for these also. Detroit is probably the worst matchup that Boston could get in the first round.

Buckle Up Baby because its about to get bumpy.

Notes:

- Not posting lines because I dont care

Go Pens.
