The Eastern Conference race is a mess:
The Pens (73 points) are two points behind Atlantic Division leading New Jersey, but have a game at hand.
Pittsburgh is currently in 5th place in the East, but a win tonight against Montreal would put them in a four way tie for 1st, without taking tie breakers into […]

 Pens 4- Kings 2.
The Rangers are beating the Flyers 2-0 with 1:30 left in the game.
The Pens are now in first in the Atlantic, 2 points ahead of the Flyers
5-2-2 since Sid’s injury.  That’s as good as anyone could have hoped for.
Malkin was pissed he missed the empty netter. I hope he holds onto that […]

The Penguins are dominating the Kings.  Jordan Staal scored with 2 seconds left in the second period to put the Pens up 4-0. FSN color guy, Bob Errey then referred to the Penguins as bees and King’s goalie LaBarbara as the hive. He really hammered that analogy home before FSN went to commercial. 
I think LaBarbara […]

I just heard on the radio that Mario Lemieux was skating with Sidney Crosby today. Why does he torture us so? If Lemieux decided to come back when Sidney did, would Mario wear the “A”? Mario is a right handed shot, and could probably still finish for Sid on the top line.
How about a Roberts-Crosby-Lemieux […]

The Pens play the Islanders tonight, look for Ryan Malone to score 7 goals, get into two fights, and record 3 assists. A win would put the Penguins in a tie for first.
According to the Trib, Sidney Crosby and Gary Roberts were skating before practice today.
Jinx disclaimer: The Eastern Conference race is tighter than […]

Pens 1 Atl 4
Lehtonen was lights out last night.
Ryan Whitney scored in the third period to prevent the shutout. Christensen and Talbot assisted on the goal.
The Pens seemed tired after playing two away games in two nights, when the Smith goal was disallowed, that was all she wrote.  That would have made it […]

Penguins 4 Devils 2
The Penguins over came 1-0 and 2-1 deficits. Jersey forward, Mike Rupp, scored a power play goal to give Jersey the lead after the first period. This guy Rupp is seven feet tall and is not know for his offensive prowess, in fact he hadn’t scored since before the lockout, in […]

I just double checked the start time for the Pens/Devil’s game, and I found out Brooks Orpik will play left wing on the fourth line tonight. Alain Nasreddine was called up to take his spot on the blue line. The FSN announcers always mention how long Orpik has gone without a goal, I won’t […]

The NHL did nothing to change its perception as a niche sport by giving away a mini-van to the All-Star game MVP.  Its’ rather fitting Eric Staal won the award, and the van, he has a big family which will fit comfortable in his new ride. Now, he and his brother’s could potentially go on […]
