Game #2 - vs Montreal Canadiens

Game 2

Canadiens (0-1-0) at Penguins (0-1-0)

Why does it matter?
After the disappointing home opener, the Pens need a win to get things rolling in the right direction.

What has been happening lately?

• Pens - The level of play was good against the Flyers, but some bad luck and missed chances determined their fate.
  
• Canadiens - Mike Cammalleri will make his season debut in the hopes helping the Habs earn two points.

Questions to be answered

• Can the big guns come up with a few goals? They were shut out against the Flyers.
• Can Flower continue his solid play? He was good on Thursday.
• Which Carey Price will show up against the Pens? He was very good against the Pens his first two years in the league (4-2) and not so good since then (0-2).

Keys to the game

• Special teams! No dumb penalties, and take advantage of your chances.
• Keep the legs going. The Habs are a good skating team. Along the same lines, stay consistent with the effort level - don't waste it all in the first 10 minutes.
• The rookies need to keep improving. The effort is there, now results need to build slowly.
