SERIES 1: GAME 6: Pens at Islanders

Nassau Coliseum. 7:00. ROOT

Pens have the potential to end the Isles' season tonight as Pittsburgh leads the series 3-2. All Pens players were accounted for during this morning's skate and the successful lineup from game 5 was used this morning.

Bylsma said that they are treating tonight as an elimination game, "We don't have six periods; we have just three. The fourth game is the hardest game to win and we expect their very best from their team tonight. We have to be ready for that." Well said, Disco.

Buckle up, baby.
