The Pittsburgh Penguins are in Ohio to face off with the Columbus Blue Jackets in preseason action on Sunday at 4:00pm.  And once again, Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins fans will see some names they know in the lineup.

Jake Guentzel, Josh Archibald, Dominik Simon, Jean-Sebastien Dea and Carter Rowney are all in the lineup once again, as each has been for the team’s first three preseason affairs.  One new insertion is forward Adam Krause, who appeared in 15 regular season games with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton last season, posting four points (1+3) and 10 penalty minutes.  His first AHL goal came in spectacular fashion, scoring shorthanded against the Hershey Bears on March 20th of last season.
