Game 62- New York Islanders @ Penguins

The Pens look to continue their playoff push Wednesday night with a home contest against the abysmal New York Islanders at Mellon Arena. The Pens lead the season series three game to one, but the Isles took the last contest in a shootout on Long Island.

Captain Sidney Crosby left practice early on Tuesday, but he's probable for the game. Defenseman Kris Letang, scratched for the last three games, will finally be back in the lineup. Marc-Andre Fleury makes yet another start in goal.

The Isles recently traded two of their best players, Mike Comrie and Chris Campoli, to the Ottawa Senators for a late first round pick in next year's draft along with veteran Dean McAmmond.

Dupuis-Crosby-Fedotenko
