May 7, 2018 | 5:40 AM

The NHL playoffs continue Monday night and if the Pittsburgh Penguins want a chance at a three-peat, then they will need a win tonight at home.

Sexsmith’s Carter Rowney and the Penguins trail the best of seven series 3-2 following a 6-3 loss Saturday night in game 5.

Rowney has not been in the line-up for the Penguins since game two.

Pittsburgh will look to try and force a game 7 which would be slated for Wednesday night in Washington.

Puck drop for tonight’s game 6 is at 5:00 p.m.
