This article originally appeared on PGHHockeyNOW. com. The Pittsburgh Penguins (0-3) are facing elimination.

After three increasingly wild games, the Penguins are winless against their hated rival Philadelphia Flyers (3-0), who will try to sweep the Penguins in front of a rowdy home crowd at Xfinity Mobile Arena Saturday. The puck drops after 8 p. m.

and Lauren Hart sings the national anthem (or God Bless America). The Penguins lost Game 3, 5-2, at Xfinity Mobile Arena on Wednesday. For the first time in the series, the Penguins had a lead, 1-0.

The advantage lasted into the game-changing fracas at 4:33 of the second period. The details and legitimacy of the penalties are a matter of perspective, but the result was a Flyers power play in front of a further amped crowd. Trevor Zegras tied the game with a power play goal, and Philadelphia scored three goals within seven minutes, which was more than the Penguins could overcome.
