  • • Did the Penguins Need a Shakeup?
    I’m going to begin this article with a statement that might cause you to question my sanity…or worse. Might trading two-time 40-goal scorer Jake Guentzel to Carolina at the deadline be the best move Kyle Dubas has made since taking over? Before you come to Wright’s Gym to cast stones and other hard objects at my noggin, a Penguins history lesson. The 1990-91 team was arguably the deepest, most tal...2024
  • • Look Out Below, Plummeting Penguins Fall to Bruins, 5-1
    Heading into the 2005-06 season, the Penguins had high hopes. Following three dismal seasons, they won the right to draft phenom Sidney Crosby. In response to our exceeding good fortune, ownership allowed then-GM Craig Patrick to dip into the coffers and sign established stars Mark Recchi, John LeClair and Sergei Gonchar. Also on hand…an aging but still potent Mario Lemieux, who figured to be reju...2024

  • • The Penguins’ Prodigal Returns: Jags is Back in Town
    Jags is back in town, Jags is back in town, Jags is back in town…(sung to the tune of the old Thin Lizzy classic, The Boys Are Back In Town). Okay, an admittedly weak lead-in for a super-noteworthy event. But I, for one, am so very happy ownership has decided to honor Jaromír Jágr and raise his iconic No. 68 to the PPG Paints Arena rafters in a special jersey retirement ceremony slated for 4:00 to...2024

    • Edge Of Seventeen
    The 1992-93 Pittsburgh Penguins for a lot of reasons, but most people will remember them from that season for three reasons: the introduction of the "Robo-Peguin" logo, falling to the New York Islanders in the playoffs that year thanks to David Volek, and an epic win streak that lasted for 17 games and 32 days. Despite winning the President's Trophy and having the league's top scorer and third-ove...2024

    I'm hardly any kind of superstitious person when it comes to how I live my life. I do believe that coincidences happen, but it's not because I dressed in a certain order or ate the same foods for each meal that day. Hockey players certainly are different, and each has their own set of what they believe and what just happens via coincidence. When two historical things for one franchise happens on t...2023
  • • Penguins Update: Letang Wins the Masterton
    I was most pleased when Kris Letang garnered the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy at the NHL awards ceremony last night. Making him the third Penguin to win the award, along with Lowell MacDonald in 1973 and Mario Lemieux in ’93. Not that his co-finalists weren’t deserving, too. Arizona’s star forward, Clayton Keller, recovered from a femur broken in two places to register an 86-point season. Chicag...2023

It just became more realistic with the news of Avs captain Gabriel Landeskog missing the entirety of the 2023-24 season due to surgery he had yesterday, which was successful. With Lan...2023

    As disappointed as I was with the Penguins’ sorry finish to the season, I can’t imagine how hockey fans are feeling in Boston, Denver and New York right now. Especially in Beantown, where the juggernaut Bruins shattered NHL records for regular-season wins (65) and points (135). Eclipsing even the powerhouse Montreal teams of the mid-to-late ‘70s. On second thought, maybe I can appreciate the depth...2023

    • Zeroes At The NHL All-Star Game
    If you're an NHL fan, you've likely known for some time that the numbers zero and double-zero are both outlawed by the league. The reasoning for this was that the NHL's statistic database didn't recognize those numbers as valid numbers being used, so the NHL outlawed them in 1996-97. That ended the hopes of seeing Martin Biron carrying on in his career wearing #00, Kevin Weekes never wearing the n...2023

    Normally, if someone is talking about hockey and the name "Lemieux" comes up, the immediate thought is former Pittsburgh Penguins superstar Mario Lemieux.

    Back on December 17, 1991, the Penguins feasted on an epically bad Sharks team by the lopsided score of 10-2. Mario Lemieux, Jamie Leach and our beloved Bibster, Bob Errey, notched two goals apiece. Sixteen black-and-gold skaters tallied at least one point that night. Thirty-two years later (has it been that long?), history repeated itself last night at the appropriately named SAP Center. Powered ...2023
