Penguins can complete season series sweep of Flyers

Mar 4, 2007 - 3:14 PM Philadelphia (17-37-10) at Pittsburgh (34-21-9) 12:30 pm EST

PITTSBURGH (Ticker) -- The Philadelphia Flyers inadvertently have made significant contributions to the success of the Pittsburgh Penguins this season.

Pittsburgh can complete its first regular-season sweep of its cross-state rival in Sunday's meeting with the Flyers.

The Penguins have never won all eight regular-season contests against the same opponent and have had just three perfect records against the same team. The most recent was a 6-0-0 mark against the Carolina Hurricanes in 1997-1998.

One game after becoming the youngest player to reach 200 career points, All-Star Sidney Crosby needs two points for his second consecutive 100-point campaign. He leads the league in points (98) and assists (71).

Pittsburgh is coming off Friday's 3-2 loss to the Hurricanes. Crosby netted his 27th goal and Ryan Malone added his 13th for the Penguins.

Playing the finale of a three-game road trip, the Flyers remain last in the league in wins, points (44) and last in the Eastern Conference in goals (170). However, they are 4-4-2 in their last 10 outings.

Philadelphia snapped a five-game losing streak with Thursday's 4-3 overtime victory over the Boston Bruins. Scottie Upshall netted the clinching tally with 10 seconds left.
