Preseason Preview #3- Wild @ Penguins

It’s preseason game #3 for the Penguins. After strong showings against the Red Wings and the Blackhawks, the Pens take on the Minnesota Wild.

The Wild themselves are coming off three wins and seem to be unstoppable. Will the Pens be the ones to stop them? Or will the Wild crush the Pens and continue to dominate their preseason? All will be figured out at 3PM today.

Playing for the Penguins today:

Forwards: Pascal Dupuis, Richard Park, Chris Kunitz, Ryan Craig, Matt Cooke, Eric Tangradi, Nick Johnson, Steve MacIntyre, Colin McDonald, Aaron Asham, Joe Vitale, Evgeni Malkin

Defensemen: Matt Niskanen, Zbynek Michalek, Brian Strait, Alexandre Picard, Kris Letang, Joseph Morrow

Goaltenders: Scott Monroe and Brad Thiessen

Watch out for:

– Mike Yeo. The former Penguins assistant coach is now the head coach of the Minnesota Wild. Will his knowledge of the Pens help the Wild?

– Evgeni Malkin. After a stellar showing against the Red Wings, will Malkin keep the pace up? Here’s hoping he will.
