The Penguins travel to New York on Sunday to meet the Islanders at 5:00. This game is meaningless when it comes to the standings. Pittsburgh is already locked in as the No. 4 seed in the East. The Islanders are firmly out of the playoff picture. But Sidney Crosby is still going for the "Rocket" Richard Trophy and Eric Tangradi could be playing in his first NHL game.

The Penguins will meet the Ottawa Senators in the first round of the playoffs.

The Lineup

When it comes to the Penguins' lineup for this game, it's anyone's guess. Christ Kunitz, Matt Cooke and Brooks Orpik are all question marks. Head coach Dan Bylsma could also chose to rest certain players in this final game of the regular season if some injured players return to play.

Alexei Ponikarovsky will be serving the second game of two-game suspension.

The Penguins have recalled 21-year-old forward Eric Tangradi from the AHL's Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins. If Tangradi cracks the lineup on Sunday, it will be his first NHL game. The 6-foot-4, 221-pound forward has 39 points, including 17 goals, in 65 games played with the WBS Penguins this season.

There is a strong possibility that Brent Johnson will get the start in goal on Sunday.
