The Penguins are just finishing up a brief two-game homestand that began with a 4-2 win against the Boston Bruins on Sunday, Mar. 10; and now ends with a match-up against the 2018 Stanley Cup Champions Washington Capitals on Tuesday night in Pittsburgh.
The Penguins are now 37-23-9 and are in third place in the Metropolitan Division.
When Tuesday night comes around, the Penguins and Capitals will meet for the fourth and final time this season. These two teams last played in Washington on Dec. 19, in which the Penguins won that game by the score of 2-1.
