Pens’ line experiment could lead to chemistry…and goals
The Penguins are getting a huge boost today against the Jets with the return of Jordan Staal. He’s missed more than a month after a knee-to-knee hit with Mike Rupp and the Pens have missed his defensive help, but even more so, they’ve missed his offense (yea, we’re surprised too).
Staal has missed 20 games and he’s still third on the team with 15 goals behind...

Pittsburgh Penguins: looking to add a gritty forward like Travis Moen
Despite numerous rumors and reports, the Pittsburgh Penguins are not looking to add a top-6 forward to their already potent offensive line-up. With Jordan Staal's imminent comeback later this month and Evgeni Malkin's hot streak, the Penguins are back in the thick of the playoff race with 62 points in 50 games, good for the 5th spot in the Eastern Conference.

Jags on the scene: Penguins crush Lightning
Let’s all admit it was very nice of the Winnipeg Jets to treat Saturday’s game against the Penguins like an all-star game. The lackluster defense made it easy for the Pens to overcome the early 2-0 deficit, so easy that they decided to give it another try on Sunday against the Lightning. Once again the Pens were able to storm back against a weak opponent en route to a 4-2 victory...

Bad Script - Flyers 4, Penguins 2
So what happened?
Jordan Staal scored just 44 seconds into the game. That was the high point for the entire evening.
The Pens were undisciplined, taking three minor penalties in the first period. This did two things - first, it allowed the Flyers to tie the game at 1-1, and (more importantly) it kept the Pens from developing any kind of offensive game. That was the story...

Penguins' Staal returns today after 15-game absence
Jordan Staal stuck in the NHL mere weeks after his 18th birthday in large part because he displayed a level of defensive excellence some centers never reach. Now in his sixth season, Staal, just 23, might have raised his offensive play to the same level. "He's so responsible in the defensive end," Penguins teammate Matt Cooke said.
