SERIES 2: GAME 4: Pens at Sens

Scotiabank Place. 7:30. NBCSN

After a frustrating double-OT loss and two days off, it's game 4 in Ottawa tonight where the Pens still lead this series 2-1. This game is going to be a big one. With a win tonight, the Pens will be one more win from the Eastern Conference Finals. A loss will make this an even series, and probably cause another irrational Pens fan meltdown of some sort.

Rumor has it that Jokinen could be back in the line-up tonight. Jussi has been out since a knee-to-knee hit occurred with Reasoner during the first round. When asked about if he's playing tonight, Jussi said:

"Our lineup every day is a game-time decision. That's the coaches' decision. I just prepare the same way. You always prepare that you're going to play."

On the Sens' side, Stone will be replacing Conacher on the Spezza line. And everyone's favorite (sarcasm city), Neil, has been cleared to play in game 4. Yippee skippy.
