RECAP: Almost Home. PENS WIN.
Playing for something, playing for nothing, it doesn't matter. The Penguins road show pulled into Ottawa and made Sens' fans clench their buttholes tighter in terms of Ottawa getting into the dance.
The Pens have lost just four games (and only one home game) since January 27th. Somehow they are on a 7-game winning streak.
When no one was looking...
Sens lose to Pens, drop to 8th
The Pittsburgh Penguins extended their winning streak and put a dent in the Ottawa Senators' playoff hopes.
Tomas Vokoun made 34 saves to earn his 300th career win and Dustin Jeffrey had a goal and an assist to lead the Penguins to their seventh straight victory, 3-1 over the Senators on Monday night.
With the loss, the Senators dropped into eighth place in the Eastern Conference...

The Ottawa Senators had a fantastic opportunity against an undermanned Pittsburgh Penguins team on home ice.
They did not capitalize.
Dustin Jeffrey, Jarome Iginla, and Tyler Kennedy all beat Craig Anderson, and Tomas Vokoun stopped thirty-four of thirty-five shots in Pittsburgh's two-goal victory.
Patrick Wiercioch scored...

Brenden Morrow will wear number 10.
Tanner Glass will switch to number 15.
Dustin Jeffrey will change to number 17.
Also, Douglas Murray won't play tonight. He will play Thursday night and wear number 3. Probably should've just cut Tanner Glass.
Murray has the longest current goalless streak in the NHL at 138 games. MurrayPowerBall...
RECAP: TK Phones Home. PENS WIN.
12 wins in a row. 24 points. February 20th, the Flyers won that free-for-all 6-5 on CONSOL ice. The Pens haven't lost at home and have gone 14-2-0 overall since then.
Even with both Malkin and Letang creeping from the press box, the Pens have managed to get teams sucked into playing their game. The complete 180 on the blue line has been the main catalyst for...
RECAP:MAF-Rock Shake. PENS WIN
Question: Hey, what do the Rangers and the Titantic have in common?
Answer: Nothing, so shut the **** up.
But if you wait about two weeks, you'll see the joke appear on Facebook that both the Titantic and New York Rangers sit on the bottom of the Atlantic. (currently this joke is featuring the Flyers)
If Dan Bylsma started a meth...

Goal Breakdown: Rangers stink it up in Pittsburgh
Well, the Rangers got dominated in Pittsburgh today. We can’t even say it was unexpected. The Rangers were absolutely dominated in the first period to the tune of a -24 Corsi (33 shot attempts for Pittsburgh, 9 for the Rangers). It was a miracle that the Rangers were only down a goal in the first, mostly due to the play of Henrik Lundqvist. That said, the entire team –including...
RECAP: Captain's Log. PENS WIN.
Since Malkin and Crosby have been on the Pens' roster, it's usually fallen on Malkin to carry the load when Crosby has been sidelined. The script has been flipped for the time being, and it's Crosby's turn to carry the load without Malkin, who has been diagnosed with a concussion. With the pressure firmly on 87's back, he has to bring it to another level. It&...
RECAP: Collateral Damage. PENS WIN.
Wednesday night, we were all treated to a great hockey game. Friday night, we got an ordinary one. No one would talk about this game ever again if it weren't for an apparent big-time injury to Evgeni Malkin. Malkin went crashing into the boards early in the third period. It looked horrible.
This game had a good pace to it at the beginning, but Florida was...
Penguins too much for Panthers
PITTSBURGH (AP) -- The Pittsburgh Penguins overcame the loss of one of their top stars and found a way to beat the Florida Panthers.
Matt Niskanen and Dustin Jeffrey scored third-period goals to send the Penguins to a 3-1 victory on Friday.
But center Evgeni Malkin was injured and missed the last 15 minutes of the game.
Chris Kunitz also scored for the Penguins, and goaltender...
John Toperzer: Game Day: Countdown to Pens-Devils Saturday afternoon
Pens (8-3, 6-1 Road) at Devils (6-1-3, 4-0-1 Home), 1:00 pm ET, Prudential Center, ROOT Sports
Countdown to Pens-Devils Saturday afternoon in the Prudential Center
10 â The seemingly number of linemates for Evgeni Malkin and James Neal. Eric Tangradi, Tyler Kennedy, Tanner Glass, Dustin Jeffrey, Sidney Crosby, Chris Kunitz and Zach Boychuk have all lined up with the...
TALK ABOUT GUMPTION
Kinda.
The whole theme of this game apparently came from the fact that Tanner Glass, our second-favorite Cornell man, used the word "gumption" when describing what he would like to see more of from his new team, and everyone at ROOT Sports was so deeply tickled by it (perhaps by virtue of learning a new word and having to Google it) that they had to use it in their...
Penguins Claim 2008 1st Round Pick Zack Boychuk from Carolina
The Penguins picked 23 year old Carolina Hurricanes Left Winger Zack Boychuk off of waivers today. Boychuk was a first round 14th overall pick in the 2008 entry draft.
Boychuk saw on average 9 minutes playing time in the 16 games he played for Carolina last year and got to play all of 1 game with them this year. My guess is that Dustin Jeffrey who was about to see time on Malkin’s...
Why is the Pittsburgh Penguins Defense so Bad?
The Penguins have new lineups for their first and second power plays. The first power play has the same players on it with one small twist. Evgeni Malkin will be on the point and James Neal will be moving up. The interesting thing is the Penguins second powerplay which practiced with Dustin Jeffrey and Paul Martin at point.
The Penguins have had 8 defensemen on the roster all season...
RECAP: Bad Moon Rising. PENS LOSE.
The usual mantra about not getting too low or too high still rings true. That doesn't make what happened last night any easier. It was embarrassing, and it has nothing to do with how people want to perceive the opponent's skill level. There was booing. There were obscenities.
Here is what we know: there is something off about the Pens. Offensively, they look lost...
Breakdown: Dustin Jeffrey vs. Eric Tangradi
So this actually happened on Sunday:
'tangradi' is now trending in #Pittsburgh trendsmap.com/us/pittsburgh
— Trendsmap Pittsburgh (@TrendsPGH) January 13, 2013
The first day of Penguin camp, and we didn't really have to wait for the main storyline to surface. And it's simple: There is a spot open in the top six. The player will be playing...
A Night of Returns
Sidney Crosby is back tonight. Paul Martin is back tonight. Kris Letang is likely back tonight. Community is back tonight.
Dustin Jeffrey and Brent Johnson remain out, but this is the closest we've seen to a healthy line-up in ages. Of course, now that we've said that, 19 players will simultaneously collapse with unknown ailments.
It looks like Marty Biron...
Crosby Takes Some Contact In Workout Today
from Kevin McGran of the Toronto Star, There are no days off for Sidney Crosby.
The concussed superstar worked out on Thursday with teammates Dustin Jeffrey and Eric Tangradi on a day when the rest of the team took a break.
Cleared for contact since Tuesday, Crosby’s workout was tough. It was supposed to be. With a couple of coaches shouting encouragement, Jeffrey and Tangradi...
