New York Rangers (1-2-0, seventh in the East Division) vs. Pittsburgh Penguins (2-2-0, fifth in the East Division) Pittsburgh; Friday, 7 p.m. EST BOTTOM LINE: Pittsburgh hosts the New York Rangers after the Penguins knocked off Washington 5-4 in overtime. Pittsburgh finished 8-6-3 in division action and 23-8-4 at home during the 2019-20 season.
Last night the Penguins had to dig deep with a depleted bench, as two defensemen suffered injury in the second period of the game against the Capitals. Add Pettersson and Riikola to Mike Matheson — who was injured in the second game of the season and placed on injured reserve — and the Pens have now suffered three injuries to left handed defensemen, through just one week and four games of the season.
