On December 20th in 2000, Pittsburgh Penguins bruiser Matthew Barnaby exited BankAtlantic Center after an unsuccessful bout with behemoth Pete Worrell when an elderly Florida Panthers fan began hurling obscenities.
Rather than ignoring the unpleasantries, Barnaby engaged the senior grabbing his arm and attempting to drag him through the railing. Releasing before the situation escalated, Barnaby
On December 15th in 2007, Chris Simon of the New York Islanders viciously stomped his skate onto the right leg of Pittsburgh Penguins pest Jarkko Ruutu with five minutes remaining in the game, earning the troubled forward a match penalty and his eighth NHL suspension.
In light of his prior history and the severity of this indiscretion, Simon received a league-longest 30 game suspension forgoing
The Pittsburgh Penguins might be in the race for a playoff spot and haven't given up yet, but the mentality since Kyle Dubas took over as general manager has been to get younger and build for the future. The core of veterans haven't been moved yet, even though it was looking like it would be the case with Evgeni Malkin, Bryan Rust, Erik Karlsson, and Rickard Rakell. The Penguins did bring in Stuart Skinner and Brett Kulak while moving out Tristan Jarry and Samuel Poulin, but those pieces can b...

The Pittsburgh Penguins lost again on Thursday, dropping a 4-0 decision to the Ottawa Senators that was a concerning replay of Tuesday’s loss to the Edmonton Oilers. They fell behind early, showed little pushback, and quietly lost by multiple goals without much of a serious challenge. At least they have moved on from losing multiple […]
The Oilers appear to be rounding into form. After a 6-4 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins earlier this week, Edmonton rolled into Boston and took down the Bruins by a score of 3-1. The two teams exchanged power play tallies in the first period, recent American Hockey League call-up Quinn Hutson buried his first NHL…
The Pittsburgh Penguins have not done well since acquiring Stuart Skinner and Brett Kulak from the Edmonton Oilers , but that isn't fully on them. Skinner has only played one game, a loss to the Oilers, and Kulak is a third-pairing defenseman. The Penguins are right in the mix still as they are two points back with one game in hand of a playoff spot. They have been dealing with some injuries throughout the season, so if they get healthy all at once, they could be a force like they were at the ...
Here are your Pens Points for this Friday morning… The Pittsburgh Penguins and Ottawa Senators duked it out in Canada’s capital city on Thursday night. It was largely a no-show performance for a Penguins team that looks defeated and deflated at the moment. The Senators took a 4-0 victory as Pittsburgh’s losing streak reached seven […]

Leon Draisaitl’s done it, scoring his 1,000th point on Tuesday night against the Pittsburgh Penguins, becoming the fifth player in Edmonton Oilers history to hit the century mark with the club. Hitting the mark took him a year longer than Connor McDavid, who hit the mark in Nov. 2024 on a goal set up by…
Erik Karlsson, I still miss you
Brett Kulak's stay with the Pittsburgh Penguins may not be long as the team could flip him sooner rather than later. In order for the Edmonton Oilers to acquire Tristan Jarry from the Penguins, money had to go back, and Stuart Skinner wasn't enough. Kulak was also included with his $2.75 million AAV cap hit. According to Elliotte Friedman, "Before he was included in the Pittsburgh deal, I think there were some teams in on Brett Kulak. That one isn't over...they did that (flipped an acquisition...
After a slow start to the season by his lofty standards, Connor McDavid has finally caught fire. On Tuesday night against the Pittsburgh Penguins, he recorded his third four-point performance of the month, propelling him to the top of the NHL scoring leaderboard for the first time this season.

Last night in Pittsburgh, Leon Draisaitl became the 21st-fastest player to score 1,000 points in NHL history. Draisaitl needed 824 games to reach the 1,000 mark — two more games than Mark Messier, and six fewer than Adam Oates to slot in between the Hall of Fame players. The list of players to reach 1,000…
