• Penguins Update: In Ray We Trusted
I remember how excited I was when the Penguins hired 43-year-old Ray Shero in the spring of 2006 to replace Hall-of-Famer Craig Patrick as general manager. Although Patrick and his chief scout, Greg Malone, had drafted brilliantly, adding the likes of future superstars Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, Marc-Andre Fleury and Kris Letang along with a stable of other young hopefuls, he’d lost his ability...2025Click for news about Sidney Crosby headline news

• Congrats... And Stuff?While it may be a historic moment tonight and will certainly be historic upon Alex Ovechkin's next goal, it might be time for a disclaimer: I really don't care if Ovechkin breaks Wayne Gretzky's career goal-scoring record. While it's certainly interesting to see Gretzky's record fall, it's hard to be enthusiastic for Ovechkin when I spent a lot of my life disliking both men. As a Penguins fan, the...2025See more Alex Ovechkin breaking news today -
• Penguins Update: Sid MVP, Bemström Waived
Just a quickie Penguins Update. Sidney Crosby has been named the team MVP for the 13th time in his illustrious career, eclipsing his former landlord Mario Lemieux, who won the award a dozen times. Noel Acciari was voted the Unsung Hero Award by his teammates. In other news, Emil Bemström was placed on waivers. If he clears, he’ll likely rejoin the Baby Pens. In 13 games with the Pens, the 25-year-...2025See more articles Sidney Crosby

• All Penguins’ Prospects Who Glitter May Not be Gold
Back in 1982-83, a feisty 20-year-old center named Mitch Lamoureux tore through the AHL like a comet. Skating for the Baltimore Skipjacks, the Penguins’ top farm team, Lamoureux piled up 57 goals and 107 points. Labelled a “special player” by one of the team’s execs, he appeared to be tailor-made for a black-and-gold team in the throes of a pre-Mario Lemieux teardown. However, after earning a spot...2025Read about Barre Scranton headline news

• Penguins Play-by-Play Legend Mike Lange Passes Away
I was deeply saddened to learn that Penguins broadcasting legend Mike Lange passed away yesterday at the age of 76. Plain and simply, Mike was a Pittsburgh institution, much in the way his one-time broadcast partner, Bob Prince, had been years earlier. There was a time in the early 1980s, before we were blessed enough to draft franchise savior Mario Lemieux, when Mike was arguably the only reason ...2025See more Pittsburgh Penguins

• Edge Of SeventeenThe 1992-93 Pittsburgh Penguins for a lot of reasons, but most people will remember them from that season for three reasons: the introduction of the "Robo-Peguin" logo, falling to the New York Islanders in the playoffs that year thanks to David Volek, and an epic win streak that lasted for 17 games and 32 days. Despite winning the President's Trophy and having the league's top scorer and third-ove...2024Read about Pittsburgh Penguins injury status -
• Magic On December 27I'm hardly any kind of superstitious person when it comes to how I live my life. I do believe that coincidences happen, but it's not because I dressed in a certain order or ate the same foods for each meal that day. Hockey players certainly are different, and each has their own set of what they believe and what just happens via coincidence. When two historical things for one franchise happens on t...2023See more articles Pittsburgh Penguins injuries -
• Penguins Update: Letang Wins the Masterton
I was most pleased when Kris Letang garnered the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy at the NHL awards ceremony last night. Making him the third Penguin to win the award, along with Lowell MacDonald in 1973 and Mario Lemieux in ’93. Not that his co-finalists weren’t deserving, too. Arizona’s star forward, Clayton Keller, recovered from a femur broken in two places to register an 86-point season. Chicag...2023Continue with Kris Letang injury update

• Recalling Our Own Game 7 Catastrophe: The Best Penguins Team to Never Win a Cup
As disappointed as I was with the Penguins’ sorry finish to the season, I can’t imagine how hockey fans are feeling in Boston, Denver and New York right now. Especially in Beantown, where the juggernaut Bruins shattered NHL records for regular-season wins (65) and points (135). Eclipsing even the powerhouse Montreal teams of the mid-to-late ‘70s. On second thought, maybe I can appreciate the depth...2023Click for news about Pittsburgh Penguins

• Penguins Update: Building Through the Draft Doesn’t Guarantee Success
If you’re a Penguins fan, you know the inevitable looms just ahead and around the corner. Eventually, the Pens are going to tear down the last vestiges of their Stanley Cup champions and begin a rebuild in earnest. The once-mighty Red Wings succumbed to the forces of Father Time. So have the equally proud Blackhawks. Like our Pens, three-time Cup winners in the new millennium. The plan in a nutshe...2024Click for news about Stanley Cup contract

Less than 24 hours after soft serving a less-than-inspired effort in a loss to the Islanders on Long Island, the Penguins turned the tables on their nettlesome foe last night at PPG Paints Arena. The result? For the most part, a solid 3-2 victory over the Isles. Indeed, the Pens did a lot of things right last night. For starters, they grabbed the lead on an early goal by former Islander Anthony Be...2024See also PPG Paints statistics

Back on December 17, 1991, the Penguins feasted on an epically bad Sharks team by the lopsided score of 10-2. Mario Lemieux, Jamie Leach and our beloved Bibster, Bob Errey, notched two goals apiece. Sixteen black-and-gold skaters tallied at least one point that night. Thirty-two years later (has it been that long?), history repeated itself last night at the appropriately named SAP Center.
