THE SETUP
The club's back, lugging along a six-game losing streak from a winless swing through Chicago and Minneapolis, and Alex Stumpf's on his way, too. I'll have the bulk of the coverage here today and tomorrow, rounding out this strange, four-game home-and-home between these teams. Media gates open at 10:20 a.m. Eastern. Derek Shelton will have his pregame news conference around that time, too.
Bear in mind that, because the Penguins’ playoff game is being aired on AT&T SportsNet, there’s a spillover channel that’s been created for this. Allegedly, anyway.
