The team will look to add three points to its tally with a win on Friday to put some separation between them and the last place Philadelphia Flyers as the teams currently have the same amount of points and are only separated by head-to-head results. On Tuesday, Pittsburgh took on the New Jersey Devils, falling 3-2 in overtime. Scoring for the Penguins were Kevin Hayes and Rickard Rakell. Alex Nedeljkovic played the full game between the pipes, making 19 saves on 21 shots.
