The Pittsburgh Penguins and Winnipeg Jets will meet tonight at PPG Paints Arena for the second and final time during the 2024-25 season.
Last month, on Oct. 20, the Penguins blew an early 2-0 lead and wound up losing 6-3. However, Friday night’s contest may be notable as captain Sidney Crosby is chasing his 600th goal.
