Game Preview

The Pittsburgh Penguins are in a fight to extend their 16-year streak of playoff hockey, and Saturday afternoon they will face the Detroit Red Wings, who have been a pesky foe this season.

Pittsburgh took a key step toward extending their playoff streak when they recorded a 4-1 win at home over the Minnesota Wild on Thursday, but there is still work to be done over its final three games of the regular season.

The Penguins (39-30-10, 88 points) sit one point behind the Florida Panthers and the New York Islanders, each of whom have 89 points and occupy the final two wild-card spots in the Eastern Conference. All three teams have three games remaining.
