Penguins first line right winger Tim Wallace is still listed as "questionable" due to a lower-body injury.

Number one goaltender Brad Thiessen hasn't lost back-to-back games all season long.

The only two "plus" players for Wilkes in game 1 were Corey Potter and Andrew Hutchinson (+1 each).

Four players made their AHL playoff debuts.

"The physical stuff is really important when it comes to playoffs.
Constantly hitting guys night in and night out, they know they’ll have to deal with it and it can weigh on a player’s mind.
I want to get to that as early as I can."
