I don’t have the stats in front of me, and frankly I’m too lazy to research it, but if memory serves me correctly the Penguins have not played very well in afternoon games over the past few seasons.

Did you spend all day yesterday watching the rain pour down and hoping that at least things would end well with a Celtic/Bruin doubleheader? If you did, you probably wished you'd gone out and stood in the rain all day instead; you'd feel about the same. We'll start with the Bruins, whose loss was a little less painful.
