  • • 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...2025

  • • 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 ...2025

  • • 4 Nations Update: Sid Shines on Big Stage
    I’ll be honest. I wasn’t planning to do any recaps during the 4 Nations Faceoff. Frankly, I’m a little burned-out and intended to take a much-needed break from blogging. Kind of my version of flopping on a beach in Florida. However, life and circumstance have a way of drawing you back in. Such is the case in the wake of Sidney Crosby’s electric three-assist performance last night in Montreal to le...2025

    The 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...2024

    I'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...2023
  • • 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...2023

    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.

    If you're an NHL fan, you've likely known for some time that the numbers zero and double-zero are both outlawed by the league. The reasoning for this was that the NHL's statistic database didn't recognize those numbers as valid numbers being used, so the NHL outlawed them in 1996-97. That ended the hopes of seeing Martin Biron carrying on in his career wearing #00, Kevin Weekes never wearing the n...2023
