The Pittsburgh Penguins are stocked with young talent. Locked, stocked and two four smoking barrels. You know about Sid the Kid. You know about Evgeni Malkin. You know about Marc-Andre Fleury. And if you didn't before last night, now you know about Jordan Staal.

Just as impressive as his third period hat trick performance to gain the OT was his take-away from Pavel Datsyuk and cross ice pass to set up the Game Winner. Jordan Staal exorcised some demons last night and it could be the start of what I predicted would be a breakout season for Staal.

It promised to be a great rematch between last season's Stanley Cup finalists, and for Jordan Staal and the Pittsburgh Penguins it turned into a personal and team statement about resilience!

It's not often that you can surrender six goals...
Robbed Ribs
I get that every year the National Hockey League has an all-star game and names it’s two all-star teams, very good players are going to be left off the invite list. But something has to change here because very good players are being held off the teams for a very poor reason.

Penguins Recover and Beat Flyers 5-4 in Shootout
The Pittsburgh Penguins gave up 4-consecutive goals in the 2nd period and blew a 3-goal lead before rallying from behind to tie the game late in the 3rd on Thursday night. The Penguins went on to beat the Philadelphia Flyers 5-4 after a lengthy shootout that saw a total of 12-shooters and just 1-goal. Sidney Crosby was the hero in regulation as he tied the game on his second goal...
Penguins Explode Late in 3rd to Beat Canes 4-1
It took almost two and a half periods for the Penguins offense to prime the pump, but when they did the goals started to flow. With their first goal coming at 8:15 of the 3rd period, the Penguins managed to add 2 more in just 3:36 to put th egame out of reach for the Carolina Hurricanes. Evgeni Malkin's empty net goal at 19:09 was the icing on the cake as the Penguins beat...
Tonight: Flyers vs. Penguins in ECF Rematch
Just a reminder that at 7:30 tonight, the Flyers play the biggest game of their young season. They'll visit the Penguins, who bounced them out of the Eastern Conference Finals last season, rather unceremoniously at that. This team needs a gut-check game. Two forwards have already been called out ...
Russian Dominance
One only needs to look at the top scorers in the NHL to see that some of the most dominant players this season are Russians. If we look at the top point scorers in the NHL we see Russians in first (Alexander Ovechkin of the Washington Capitals), second (Evgeni Malkin of the Pittsburgh Penguins) and ...
No Montreal Return for Sidney Crosby
Despite rampant speculation earlier this week that Sidney Crosby would make his return to the ice tonight in Montreal against the Canadiens, it looks like fans will have to wait until AT LEAST Saturday when the Penguins host the Ottawa Senators in Pittsburgh. Sidney Crosby has been out of the lineup since January 18th when he left the ice against the Tampa Bay Lightning with a high...
Atlantic Division Champs!
For the first time since the 1997-98 season when they were members of the Northeast Division, the Penguins won a division title. It was a hard-fought 4-2 victory over Philadelphia who had the upper-hand early on after going up 2-1, but a goal from Evgeni Malkin and two from Sidney Crosby (including ...
Nothing But Staal
I'd love to know the Versus ratings on last night's Red Wings/Penguins game. It seemed liked everyone was watching it. The Wings blew a three-goal lead and were pretty much single-handedly beaten by Pittsburgh's Jordan Staal. Staal has a lot of offensive talent for a natural shut-down center ...
Koz: GRADING THE PENS
by Kozkoz81@comcast.netThe first month of the 08-09 season has had plenty of ups and downs. In the spirit of sloppy third periods, I'm not going to proofread the last third of this blog post a?" just fair warning to you as we start. I always like the weekly grading of the Steelers in the Post Gazette, so figured I'd try that with the Pens first month. Thanks...
