Pittsburgh Penguins Gameday Preview — Pittsburgh Hockey Tonight

Let's go smash the Flyers tonight, yinz.

## Tonight's a Battle, Not Just a Game

Alright, Pittsburgh, listen up. Tonight ain't just another game on the schedule, no matter what some jagoff in Philly tries to tell ya. It's the Pittsburgh Penguins against the Philadelphia Flyers, and yinz know what that means. It's steel city grit against… well, whatever it is they got down there. We're heading into Xfinity Mobile Arena and it’s gonna be loud, it's gonna be chippy, and it’s gonna be a *battle*. Our boys are coming off a tough loss, but honestly, that just makes 'em hungrier. We're sitting second in the Metro, and every point matters, especially when it's taken from those jabronis.

What am I watching for tonight? Everything.

* Crosby. Always Crosby. He's got a way of making those Philly fans real quiet, real fast. * The physicality. These games always turn into a street fight, and I wanna see our boys stand up for themselves. No backing down. * Power play. Their penalty kill is usually pretty solid, but if we can capitalize, it'll shut 'em right up. * Goaltending. We need our netminder to be a brick wall, plain and simple.

The energy here in Pittsburgh is always the same for a Flyers game – a low rumble that's ready to erupt. Yinz are talking about it at the Primanti's counter, you're talking about it on the Clemente Bridge walking over to the ballpark. This isn't just a rivalry game; it’s personal. It's our chance to show them who really runs this state, and frankly, it feels like a must-win to get that momentum back. We've been a little slippy lately, going 5-5-0 in our last ten, but a big win tonight changes everything.

From dahntahn Pittsburgh — yinz know what time it is. Let's Go Pens.

My buddy Stosh and the gang talk about this kinda stuff every single mornin', yinz gotta check it out live at mornings.live.
