The Pittsburgh Penguins come into this matchup against the Calgary Flames riding a 6-game winning streak and looking like a legit playoff team for the first time in a while. The Penguins have beaten contenders the Detroit Red Wings (twice) and the Carolina Hurricanes during this win streak.
And now the Penguins are facing a team that they should definitely beat and not struggle with. The Flames are a team that are at the bottom of the Western Conference standings. They are not a good team and have not played good as of late.
The Penguins need to do what they can to get the first goal and start good and just keep that momentum rolling as the game goes on.
