The Pittsburgh Penguins take on the Philadelphia Flyers Thursday night, in hopes of extending their win streak to 10 games.

The Penguins defeated the St. Louis Blues on Wednesday night, 5-3, via a thrilling third period. Pittsburgh has been playing tremendous hockey of late, improving their standing in the Metropolitan Division after a slow start to the season.

The Pens currently sit in fourth place in the Metro, 11 points ahead of the fifth-place Flyers.

Nonetheless, a rivalry matchup on the second night of a back-to-back is sure to be a tough draw for the Penguins, who after an emotional win have to travel across the state to play a Flyers team that’s lost three straight games.

A win over their in-state rival could make a big difference in what’s been a tough NHL season, marred by COVID-19 and an in-season break in action.
