Pilly needs 2 points to pass the Caps for the final wildcard spot. The Caps have the first tie breaker against Pilly.


Malenstyn did travel to Pilly with the team. No word yet if he’s available tonight. The team did not have a morning skate today.


Win or go play golf.

Rey Capalpatine:
Big game tonight.  It all boils down to this game.

Mickstix:
Can't remember if Filly is fast or not? Those are the teams that give us fits.. If not, we should have a shot, barring  :poop: puck luck or goaltending.

At the 5:30 pregame presser, coach said Malenstyn is a game time decision.
