The Pittsburgh Penguins visit the Dallas Stars tonight, where they have lost four of their past five games. Dallas has struggled this month, winning only three of their 11 games. Face-off is 8:38pm. Pre-game on WISR 680am will be 8pm.
The Pens have made only one trade prior to Wednesday’s deadline, but three Eastern Conference teams, including Washington made moves Monday. The Capitals acquired defenseman Kevin Shattenkirk from St. Louis for three players and a draft pick.
Toronto acquired forward Brian Boyle from Tampa Bay and Ottawa acquired forward Alex Burrows from Vancouver.
Philadelphia defenseman Brandon Manning has been suspended two games by the NHL for a high and late hit on Penguins forward Jake Guentzel in the “Stadium Series” game Saturday at Heinz Field.
