PENGUINS PLAY IN COLUMBUS, BUT CHECK OUT THE ROSTER IN CRANBERRY!

The Penguins will play their second preseason game in Columbus tonight with a lineup heavy on prospects. Forward Ville Koivunen, Blake Lizotte, and Philip Thomasino and defenseman Jack St. Ivany are the only players who have seen substantial time in a Penguins uniform, but rookie top draft pick Ben Kindel will skate again, with Filip Larson and Arturs Silovs in goal.

The rest of the Pens’ roster will play a non-game scrimmage in Cranberry at 9:30 this morning, with Team 1 featuring Sidney Crosby, Bryan Rust, Harrison Brunicke, and Tristan Jarry taking on Team 2, led by Evgeni Malkin, Kris Letang, Rickard Rakell, and Erik Karlsson. The scrimmage is free and open to the public.
