The MVP hopeful Evgeni Malkin was given another award by the NHL as the Second Star of the Month for March. In 15 games in the month of March, Malkin had 23 points, 11 goals and 12 assists. He currently sits atop the rankings with the most points in the league with 104, with runner up Steven Stamkos trailing by 12 points with four games remaining. During March the Penguins went 11-3-1 have a clinched a playoff berth. Malkin has been awarded many accolades this season by the NHL with no doubt a few more to come.

Yesterday’s game with the Flyers was just crazy. Not only did they own us after we opened up a 2-0 lead in the first period but things got out of control with about a minute left in the game. I mean it was an all out brawl on the ice, even the coaches got into the action. The craziest part is that we meet again next Saturday in the regular season finale and it looks like...

Andrew Ference isn't a big guy. And he doesn't often get himself into physical battles, especially fights. On Tuesday night, Ference made an exception. After a tough first period, Ference had just about enough of the Pittsburgh Penguins' gritty style and took on a much larger opponent to relieve some aggression. Ference challenged Penguins winger James Neal, giving up...

If it was a preview, then we're in a for a good one.On day two of a back-to-back, Philadelphia spotted the Pens a 2-0 lead, but behind a four-goal 3rd period the Flyers beat the Penguins 6-4.So what...?

Sidney Crosby’s return has apparently been worth the wait. Crosby has 25 points in 15 games, a point-per-game ratio of 1.666, his best ratio in his career. But why has Crosby’s return been so successful? Several responds to his dominance have been that the amount of time that the Penguins staff and doctors took with him really helped him be just as good, if not better, than he...

In February, I wrote about how the Philadelphia Flyers were the highest scoring team in the league. They will not finish the season in that position. The Pittsburgh Penguins have taken over that spot. It is no surprise that this happened after Sidney Crosby returned from injury. With Crosby in the lineup, the Penguins have the two highest scoring players in the league in...

Tuesday night's game wasn't supposed to matter for the Bruins, since they're locked into the No. 2 spot in the Eastern Conference for the playoffs. When Johnny Boychuck went down with an injury, however, things got real in a hurry. The Bruins lost the game and potentially more when Boychuck collided with Arron Asham and left the game with a lower-body injury. Obviously...

Playoffs, Pens and Flyers make for great matchup
Follow me on Twitter @JohnToperzer
If youâre a Penguins fan, Sundayâs game was more chatter and jockeying than anything else. How much does it really matter whether the Pens finish fourth or fifth? Itâs a foregone conclusion that the teams will meet in the first round of the playoffs.

I hate that the Flyers are 3-1 against the Pens. It’s pretty annoying. The last game between these two was [...]
