Vets on the bubble: Who needs a good camp for the Penguins
Conventional wisdom states that a player with a big salary and years of NHL experience usually sticks with the NHL roster. The Penguins have been bucking that trend lately, starting with waiving goalie Tristan Jarry and sending him to the minors in the 2024-25 season. That continued in a major way last season in 2025-26 […]
Can any Penguins player or coach win an award during 2026-27 season?
The Pittsburgh Penguins have gone through a bit of a major awards drought in recent years, with Kris Letang’s Masterton Trophy in 2022-23 being the last individual award won by a member of the Penguins. Prior to that, you have to go back to the 2016-17 season when Sidney Crosby won the Rocket Richard Award […]
Penguins to watch for at the prospects tournament
The Penguins announced their roster for this weekend’s prospects tournament in Detroit a full three days ahead of time. (Given the last minute nature of past roster releases, that statement is meant with a minimal level of irony). Only 14 forwards are going, so it’s going to be a great chance for those involved. The […]

The player who needs to deliver for the Penguins

They’ll do so with a lineup that’s […]

Building the Pens: How will Dan Muse do in year two?
It was obvious the Pittsburgh Penguins in 2025-26 would be different from the start. Naturally, they had to be after Mike Sullivan was out and a rookie NHL coach was taking over. The changes were visible from Muse’s very first day, a high-energy, up tempo practice with assistant coaches banging sticks enthusiastically on the glass […]

NHL Odds ‘n Ends: Hellebuyck, expansion, Jagr finished?
The latest official Team USA to trade request is goalie Connor Hellebuyck.
