Tomorrow the Pittsburgh Penguins face off against the New York Islanders. The last time these teams faced each other the Islanders won the game 9-3. However the fans did not focus their attention to the scoreboard. In fact, this game was one of the craziest games of the season. Both teams combined for 65 penalties, totaling 346 penalty minutes. In addition, 10 players were ejected leaving both teams with about 2 lines of players left to play.

Tomorrow will be the first meeting since the brawl resulting in many suspensions, fines, and even some injuries. Fans have been patiently awaiting this second to last game of the season for the Pens. Many circling the date on the calendar, not knowing if the fighting will occur again, or if the teams have moved on from previous encounters.
The only way to find out is to watch the action take place, tomorrow night at 7pm on Rootsports.
