Nothing Beats Playoff Hockey, Game Seven!

One game, only one team can survive!
One game, only one team can survive!

Down 3-1 in the best of seven series, the Penguins top minor league affiliate Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (AHL) has battled back and forced a Game Seven tonight at 6 p.m. EST against the St. John's IceCaps in Newfoundland, Canada. The winner moves onto the Eastern Conference Finals and will travel to Norfolk for Game One Thursday night in Virginia.

This has just been an incredible series. The Penguins and IceCaps split the first two games in St. John's before playing three straight overtime games in Wilkes-Barre. The IceCaps won Games Three and Four, pushing the AHL Penguins on the brink. But after a double overtime winner from Simon Despres in Game Five and an impressive 4-2 win in St. John's last night in Game Six, this series gets decided on one game. Game Seven.

Follow @H_P_Hockey on Twitter for updates all night, including a post game recap of all the action. I'll post it to the fanshots section on the right side column (off the main page).

Looks like you can watch for free here. Have heard mixed reviews on the free stream. You can buy a stream for 10 bucks on the AHL Live if it doesn't work.
