Weekly Rewind
Wednesday, Nov. 14 - PENGUINS 5 at Springfield 1
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton won their School Day Game showdown with Springfield in resounding fashion. The Penguins scored late in all three periods, including Tristan Jarry notching the first goal by a goalie in franchise history.
Friday, Nov. 16 - PENGUINS 1 vs. Charlotte 2
In a tilt with the first-place Charlotte Checkers, two teams put forth a low-scoring yet thrilling performance. Despite a brilliant game from Jarry and not allowing a goal at even strength, the Pens were edged by the Checkers on a power play goal by Andrew Poturalski the final five minutes.
Saturday, Nov. 17 - PENGUINS 5 vs. Charlotte 6 (OT)
The Penguins and Checkers tapped into their respective high-octane offenses and both rattled off streaks of four-straight goals in this game. Anthony Angello scored late in regulation to force OT, but Charlotte emerged victorious yet again.
