  • • NHL Trade Rumors: Sidney Crosby’s Penguins Speculated to Take $60,000,000 Swing With Maple Leafs D-Man

  • • Penguins Prospect Bill Zonnon Shines (Ilyin Too)
    During the 2025 Entry Draft, I confess I was bitterly disappointed at first when the Penguins selected smallish center Ben Kindel 11th overall. I very much wanted us to take bristling physical defenseman Kashawn Aitcheson, who went on to pile up 28 goals and 70 points in 56 games with the Barrie Colts this past season. I still held out hope Kyle Dubas might take Aitcheson with the 12th overall pic...2026
  • • 2026 Draft: Penguins 1st Round Player Options Breakdown Part 2
    Welcome to part two of my breakdown, analysis, and review of the possible first-round options for the Penguins in the 2026 NHL Draft. For the most part, we’re going over players who are projected to be taken around the Penguins’ draft range — not necessarily who they will take. That said, I usually include at least one player I think the Penguins may actually be targeting based on the types of pro...2026
  • • Penguins Extend Evgeni Malkin
    The Penguins have signed franchise icon Evgeni Malkin to an extension for the 2026-27 season. The deal calls for $5.5 million in base salary, plus incentives. Since I was literally in transit to my job when I learned of this and have no time to write a more personalized summary, I’m going to pull news of the announcement from the Penguins’ web site. But needless to say, I’m thril...2026
  • • The Penguins Could Make A Draft Steal In The 2026 NHL Draft
    There has been a lot of online speculation about who the Penguins might target and what Kyle Dubas might do. Most of it has honestly been focused in the wrong direction. Articles, sports media, and fans alike have all been talking about trading away the Penguins’ prized first-round pick for players like Jason Robertson, Robert Thomas, Brady Tkachuk, and even Auston Matthews.

Kyle Dubas injury and suspension

  • • Penguins Extend Dewar and Solovyov
    The Penguins conducted their first bit of business in what promises to be an active and impactful offseason. And I must say, I like it. Kyle Dubas signed feisty fourth-line stalwart Connor Dewar to a two-year extension with an AAV of $2.25 million. He also inked defenseman Ilya Solovyov to a one-year deal with a cap hit of $850 K. When Dubas extended Blake Lizotte back on January 12, I thought “wh...2026
  • • 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
  • • Where Would the Penguins Be Without ‘Em?
    A quick pop quiz. What do Erik Karlsson, Bryan Rust and Rickard Rakell have in common? If you replied they’re all terrific hockey players who are in their 30s and play for the Penguins, you’d of course be correct. But that’s not the answer I was looking for. Give up? Although it’s really hard to imagine, especially in light of what they’ve accomplished this season, all three were rumored to be on ...2026
  • • Penguins Rx Update: Injuries Abound
    Health-wise, the hits just keep on comin’ for our Penguins. The team announced today that power forward Justin Brazeau would be out week-to-week with an upper-body injury. In addition, defenseman Samuel Girard and forward Kevin Hayes are likewise out with upper-body injuries, albeit on a day-to-day basis. Given that Elmer Söderblom is in many ways a Brazeau clone, one wonders if Justin was nursing...2026
  • • Penguins Update: To Sign or Not to Sign Geno, That is the Question
    In addition to the trade deadline, now less than 48 hours away, there’s a weightier issue on Kyle Dubas’s plate. Should our POHO/GM extend Pens great Evgeni Malkin for another season? Or should he let the UFA-to-be walk? First, the pros, and there are plenty of ‘em. At the ripe old age of 39, Malkin is enjoying a marvelous season. Despite missing 15 games with what’s rumored to be a wonky sh...2026
  • • Are the Penguins at a Crossroads?
    With the March 6 NHL trade deadline looming just around the corner, Penguins POHO/GM Kyle Dubas no doubt has some heavy-duty decisions to make concerning the team’s future direction. And not a whole lot of time to make them. Should he swing for the fences in an effort to improve the team’s chances and make a play for, say, Blues forward Jordan Kyrou, rumored to be available? Should he selectively ...2026

  • • Should the Penguins be Buyers or Sellers at the Deadline?
    About a month ago, I wrote an article titled, “What Should Dubas Do Now,” sharing my thoughts about the then-distant trade deadline. With the Olympics about to wrap-up and the NHL set to resume play this coming week, the March 6 deadline looms just around the corner. Too, our situation has changed since I posted my piece. Sidney Crosby’s recent injury aside, generally for the better. Beginning on ...2026
  • • Penguins Prospects Watch: 2025 Draftees
    Last week I posted an article detailing the progress of the Penguins’ prospects at Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. Today, I thought I’d focus on the kids taken in the 2025 Entry Draft to see how they’re performing. My esteemed colleague, Other Rick, already started us down this path in the comments section of the Baby Pens article. I confess, prospects watching is his domain and he’s far more observa...2026

  • • Penguins Acquire Goalie Silovs from Canucks
    Just when I was rather blissfully settling into deep a summertime hockey slumber, Kyle Dubas had to go and pull off another trade. The Penguins’ POHO/GM acquired 24-year-old goalie Arturs Silovs from old friend Jimmy Rutherford’s Canucks for minor-league forward Chase Stillman and a fourth-round pick in the 2027 Entry Draft. My initial reaction…surprise bordering on shock. Especially since P...2025
  • • Penguins Update: A Little Love for Mitch
    I’ll be the first to admit I don’t have any special insight into the pool of candidates Kyle Dubas might be considering for the Penguins’ coaching vacancy. However, one potential candidate intrigues me. Full credit goes to Dan Kingerski of Pittsburgh Hockey Now for suggesting him in an article published the other day. For the past two seasons, Mitch Love has served as assistant coach for the Capit...2025

  • • How Are the Penguins Gonna Get Their Next Sid?
    It’s fair to say that in his three short seasons at the Penguins’ helm, Kyle Dubas has done a marvelous job of refilling what were largely barren prospect coffers. In the process, he’s transformed Wilkes-Barre/Scranton from a team stocked largely with has-beens and never-weres into one of the youngest and arguably most talented clubs in the AHL.
