    The Penguins skate into tonight’s Game 4 fray at Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philly facing a monumental uphill climb. Down 3-0 in their first-round series against the physical, opportunistic Flyers, the black-and-gold have no margin for error. Lose, and we’ll be packing our bags and scheduling tee times.

Dan Muse injury and suspension

  • • Penguins Surprises: Who’da Thunk It?
    As the Grateful Dead sang in their 1970 classic, Truckin’, “what a long, strange trip it’s been.” Yes, I’m referring to the Penguins’ Cinderella season. Back when training camp assembled last September, who’da thunk (in no particular order): Anthony Mantha, coming off a season lost to ACL surgery at age 31, would register career highs in goals (31), assists (30) and points (61); Fello...2026

  • • No Joy in the ‘Burgh: Penguins Crosby to Miss Four Weeks
    The news regarding Sidney Crosby and the injury he sustained at the Olympics finally filtered out this morning. As anticipated, it ain’t good. Sid’s expected to miss a minimum of four weeks with a lower-body injury. Yikes. Translated to the Penguins’ remaining schedule, already one of the toughest in the league, that encompasses our next 15 games. Double yikes. I opined in a previous article the P...2026
  • • Penguins Update: Still No Official Word on Sid
    Now that the Olympics are over and the NHL is set to resume play, we still have no official word on the nature and severity of Sidney Crosby’s injury. Reading between the lines, it sounds like Sid seriously considered suiting up for the gold-medal clash between his native Canada and the United States, which hopefully indicates his injury isn’t long-term in nature. In the interim, the Penguins have...2026
  • • Longtime Penguins defenseman Kris Letang out at least a month due to fractured foot
    Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman Kris Letang will miss at least four weeks with a fractured foot. The club announced the extent of the injury on Saturday before the surging Penguins faced the New York Rangers. Pittsburgh coach Dan Muse said Letang, who is in his 20th season, injured the foot during a 6-2 victory over Chicago on Thursday....2026

  • • Penguins Call Up Poulin, Waive Tomasino
    Out of the blue, the Penguins had a fairly eventful day, personnel-wise, ahead of their return to action on Friday night against the Wild. Rookie forward Ville Koivunen has been placed IR. He’ll be out week-to-week with a lower-body injury. With a pair of assists and no goals in 11 games, the youngster experienced his struggles at the big-league level this season. This on the heels of an impressiv...2025
  • • Penguins Zip Past Blues, 6-3
    The Penguins sprang to a jack-rabbit start last night against the Blues, allowed the tortoise visitors to catch up, then outraced them to the finish line for a snappy 6-3 victory. Talk about getting the jump on an opponent! The Pens grabbed a two-goal lead on tallies by Bryan Rust and Anthony Mantha before the game was a minute old. However, the pesky Blues countered with goals by ex-Pen Nick Bjug...2025

  • • Penguins Outgunned by CBJ in a Shootout, 5-4
    The Penguins lost to the Blue Jackets last night, 5-4, in a see-saw affair that was decided in a shootout. In the process, snapping our feel-good, four-game winning streak and sending the 15,261 PPG Paints Arena partisans home a tinge disappointed. The game actually commenced on a high note for the locals. Anthony Mantha slipped a pretty cross-ice pass to a trailing Ryan Shea and No. 5 did the res...2025

  • • No Bones About It, Bonino to Rejoin Penguins
    Based on an announcement by our former Stanley Cup hero, it appears Nick Bonino will be joining the Penguins coaching staff in an undefined role. “I just wanted to officially announce I will be retiring from professional hockey,” the 37-year-old said. “I had a really unique opportunity come up to coach the Pittsburgh Penguins, it’s something we thought was the best move for our family at this time...2025

  • • Penguins Update: Gold for Sully
    To say the past year hasn’t been the best or kindest for former Penguins coach Mike Sullivan is an understatement of the highest magnitude. After a decade at the Penguins’ helm, the two-time Cup winning coach and the team parted ways last April. While some reported the divorce was mutual, others closer to the situation suggested that Sullivan was, indeed, fired by POHO/GM Kyle Dubas. The Marshfiel...2026

  • • Penguins Crush Canucks, 5-1
    Over the past few days, a number of hockey fans at Wright’s Gym have asked me what I thought of our Penguins through the early going. I confessed that I hadn’t seen enough of them to form an opinion, especially since they were playing on the West Coast. “I think it might be a case of smoke and mirrors,” I offered. Well, after last night’s thoroughly convincing 5-1 thrashing of Vancouver at PPG Pai...2025

Dan Muse stats and results

  • • Caps Complete Weekend Sweep, Blank Penguins, 3-0
    The Penguins iced a more regular lineup for yesterday’s matinee clash with the Capitals at Capital One Arena. Indeed, big guns Sidney Crosby, Erik Karlsson, Kris Letang, Evgeni Malkin and Bryan Rust all returned to the lineup along with Parker Wotherspoon after sitting out Saturday’s loss to the Caps. While the Pens were much more competitive, at least in terms of shot activity, the results were p...2026
  • • Penguins Prospects: What About the Kids?
    In yesterday’s post, I detailed many of the extraordinary things that went right for our Penguins this season. However, there was one important area I didn’t touch on. Namely, how our Pens did when it came to developing the kids. Regarded as a Dan Muse strength. On that count, I’d say the results were mixed at best. Before I go into detail, it should be noted our youngsters certainly didn’t ...2026

It was a great game to watch, with plenty of back-and-forth action. Stellar goaltending, too. In the end it came down to a shootout, where the Bolts predictably eclipsed our Pens, 2-1, to match the final score of the game. Following two sc...2026

    I’ll be the first to admit, I’m as guilty as the next person (okay, guiltier) when it comes to making snap judgments. Especially when it involves our Penguins.

    Penguins rookie head coach Dan Muse is giving every indication that things are going to be different on his watch. How different, you ask? He’s got a pair of teenagers in the lineup, for one.
