Syracuse Crunch @ WBS Penguins 11/23

Scott Munroe will start in net tonight for the Penguins.

The Penguins return home after a weekend road trip through New England for an East Division showdown with the Syracuse Crunch. The Penguins are 1-2-0-2 in their last five games and need to get back on track to maintain their first place lead. The Crunch are currently in fourth place and seven points behind the Pens but also have two games in hand.

WBS: 18 games played, 10-4-1-3, 24 pts - 1st place East Division
SYR: 16 games played 7-6-2-1 17 pts - 4th place East Division

Penguins beat writer Jonathan Bombulie reports that Scott Munroe will get the start tonight and that Carl Sneep, Geoff Walker, Brian Gibbons and Paul Thompson will be healthy scratches. Apparently head coach John Hynes isn't happy with their play. So it looks like Matt Rust and Ryan Schnell will play tonight.
