GAMEDAY: Game 5 - Flyers at Penguins

Consol Energy Center. 
8 pm.
TV: NBCSN
Radio: 105.9 The X

For the first time since Game 4 of the 1992 Stanley Cup Finals, the Penguins will be wearing these jerseys tonight.
And we could not be more excited. To cap off the nostalgia of these jerseys our friends enemies from across the state are inside Consol Energy Center tonight for the first of 4 meetings between the Pens and Flyers. This one is part of NBCSN's Wednesday Night Rivalry and the first time of 4839248932 times the Penguins will play on Wednesday Night Rivalry this season. The Penguins are somehow playing just their 5th game this year and the Flyers are coming off a 4-0 loss last night in Chicago and they're off to a 1-3-2 start. Safe to say, we're pretty jammed up for this one. Lines and notes to follow.
