It will be a hockey family reunion tonight at PPG Paints Arena when the Pittsburgh Penguins welcome the Edmonton Oilers to town to wrap up this five game homestand. Returning to Pittsburgh will be longtime goaltender Tristan Jarry who was just traded last week. On the Penguins side, Stuart Skinner and Brett Kulak will lace […]
When we looked ahead to this past week on Monday, I said it would have been a good week if the Penguins could collect at least five or six points in the four games that were ahead. After all, things were looking good. The Penguins had just completed a wildly successful three-game road trip through […]
The Penguins dropped another stunner at this point when Utah completed a three-goal comeback on them just one day after San Jose managed to comeback from four goals down. It can’t be all that surprising considering that blowing seemingly insurmountable leads is what they regularly do these days. It is the little things, but the […]
Here are your Pens Points for this Monday morning… The Pittsburgh Penguins played two of the worst games I have ever watched this team play on Saturday and Sunday. On Saturday, against the San Jose Sharks, they inexplicably blew a 5-1 third-period lead en route to a 6-5 overtime loss. Twenty-four hours later, this same […]
Pregame Same forwards and defensemen for the Penguins as yesterday’s meltdown, rookie Sergei Murashov is pressed into action since Stuart Skinner and Brett Kulak are still tied up with their paperwork coming into America. The visiting Utah Mammoth make their first appearance known as the Mammoth in Pittsburgh with this lineup. First period You never […]

Pregame Rickard Rakell is back, which provides a big boost to the forward lines. The Pens shake Tommy Novak, Anthony and Kevin Hayes all down a little bit, give Ben Kindel, Rutger McGroarty and the returning Rakell bigger roles than the past. Pretty good there. The newly acquired players from Edmonton are hung up with […]

The Penguins have had a Tristan Jarry problem for a while now. The 30-year old is on the books through the 2027-28 season at a $5.375 million cap hit. Pittsburgh doesn’t have salary cap issues for the future, but Jarry’s involvement with the team has been through the ringer ever since he was waived and […]
The Pittsburgh Penguins added two roster players in the big trade to bring in goalie Stuart Skinner and defenseman Brett Kulak in exchange for just one going on the door in goalie Tristan Jarry. That math means someone has to depart the Pens’ roster and the team announced it will be veteran defender Matt Dumba […]
During the 2024-25 season, not too far from this point in the season, any team in the NHL could have had Tristan Jarry and his contract for free. Given up no assets. Traded nothing. Just taken him off the waiver wire. Nobody would bite. On Friday, the Edmonton Oilers not only took on Tristan Jarry’s […]
Buckle up, folks. The Pittsburgh Penguins are reportedly trading goalie Tristan Jarry to the Edmonton Oilers. Elliotte Friedman was first to the case. Pierre Lebrun added in more confirmation. Obviously much more to come as news comes in for this developing story.
The Penguins made some roster moves on Friday ahead of a big weekend. Defenseman Harrison Brunicke, as expected, is going to play for Team Canada at World Juniors in Minnesota. Depending on how the team does, this could keep him away from the pro club until early January. Brunicke has not played in the NHL […]
A potential buyer for the Pittsburgh Penguins who had an exclusive window to buy the team has apparently allowed that window close. Earlier this year, news surfaced that the Hoffmann family, who are based out of Florida and own the ECHL’s Florida Everblades, had emerged as a serious contender to buy the Pittsburgh Penguins. Sportsnet’s […]
Here are your Pens Points for this Friday morning… Not something you see every day, but the start of Thursday’s game against the Montreal Canadiens was delayed by half an hour after a major traffic incident prevented some Penguins players from reaching the arena on time. Even after all the players made it to the […]
Pregame The start of the game is delayed a half hour due to a major traffic backup on I-279 that caught some of the players from getting to the arena. Once they get in, it’s the same lineup as last game besides Triatn Jarry in net tonight. The visiting Canadiens are coming into town with […]

Momentum is only as good as the next shift, the next play and the next game. That is important to keep in mind for the Pittsburgh Penguins going into Thursday’s game against the Montreal Canadiens — and their next two games this week — after their back-to-back tough losses against the Dallas Stars and Anaheim […]

In what will be the first of three meetings in an 11 day stretch, the Pittsburgh Penguins welcome the Montreal Canadiens to PPG Paints Arena later this evening in the second game of their current five game homestand. The Penguins are in need of a big bounce back game, coming off two straight games that […]

Sidney Crosby is up to 1,718 career points, five shy of Mario Lemieux’s Penguin franchise record of 1,723. Lemieux stands eighth all-time in NHL scoring. Putting up 1,723 points for a single team is a franchise record that many thought had a chance to stand indefinitely. Only two players have scored more points for a […]
