Cage goes in the water. You go in the water. Shark’s in the water. Our shark. The Pittsburgh Penguins (3-2-0) make their annual visit to the SAP Center to face the San Jose Sharks (0-1-2) Saturday.

The puck drops just after 10 p.m. ET.

The Penguins snapped a two-game losing streak with a character-building comeback win over the LA Kings Thursday, 4-2 at Crypto.com Arena. The Penguins rallied from a 2-0 deficit in the first period with goals from Evgeni Malkin and Connor Dewar before Filip Hallander scored his first NHL goal early in the third period.
