  • • Penguins Game-Day Rant
    I was exchanging texts with PP colleague Caleb DiNatale, which served to set off me off regarding one of my biggest Penguins peeves. Before I begin to ramble, please understand this by no means is intended to denigrate or demean the players I’m about to mention. Anyone who makes it to the NHL (or even the AHL or ECHL) are incredible athletes who are very good at what they do. Rather my rant is poi...2025

  • • Senators Crush Penguins, 5-0, in Wild One
    In a game rife with playoff implications and rough stuff, the Penguins started on the wrong foot yesterday against the Senators at PPG Paints Arena and it cost ‘em. Just who the wrong foot belonged to was a matter of debate. Sens forward Tim Stützle appeared to make contact with Alex Nedeljkovic’s left skate as Tyler Kleven’s drive from center point sailed past after redirecting off Noel Acciari’s...2025

  • • Penguins Update: Marooned in the Middle?
    Now that the Penguins’ hot streak has passed (1-2-2 in our last five games) and the dust is once again settling on our season, the immediate future isn’t too rosy. Masked in part by a surprisingly productive power play (31 goals, 25.62 conversion rate), we’re among the worst teams in the league in goals for percentage 5v5 (43.09). Despite our hockey .500 record, we have the third-worst goal differ...2025
  • • Penguins Outed By ‘Canes, Fall 4-3 in OT
    Our Penguins were outed last night en route to 4-3 overtime loss to the Kryptonite ‘Canes in Raleigh. As in out-worked, out-skated, out-checked, out-hustled and out-performed, to name but a few. But don’t take my word for it. Here’s what black-and-gold coach Mike Sullivan had to say about his team’s effort, or lack of. “We just got out-competed,” he snapped in the aftermath. “They raised their lev...2025
  • • Penguins Waive Jesse Puljujärvi
    The Penguins placed forward Jesse Puljujärvi on waivers yesterday, perhaps with the intent of clearing a roster spot for a returning player. They’re currently at the 23-man limit. Between you, me and the lamp post, I would’ve preferred the Pens waive veteran Kevin Hayes, who doesn’t have the speed to excel in Mike Sullivan’s system. But in fairness, Hayes is a bit more versatile ...2024

  • • Penguins Update: Is Mike Sullivan Reinventing Himself?
    Anyone who’s read PenguinPoop for any length of time knows black-and-gold coach Mike Sullivan doesn’t receive a whole lot of love on our blog. I’ve personally been critical of his work on occasions too numerous to count. I’ve called for him to be fired at least twice. The first time, following the 2022-23 season when we let an all-but-assured playoff berth slip through our grasp. The second, earli...2024

  • • Penguins Promote Sam Poulin
    Just a quickie bulletin. In the wake of the latest injury to hard-scrabble (and hard-luck) forward Noel Acciari, the Penguins have recalled former first-round pick Sam Poulin. Finally. Amid a season pock-marked by his own stints on IR, the 6’1″ 208-power forward has been a force when healthy, to the tune of 13 goals and 27 points in 36 games for the Baby Pens. Although a left shot, Pou...2024

    I was surprised to learn Penguins coach Mike Sullivan had scratched Vinnie Hinostroza in favor of Jansen Harkins (pictured) for Saturday night’s game with the Maple Leafs.

On the flip side, Harkins, who’d enjoyed a strong preseason after being claimed on waivers from the Jet...2023

In the process, snapping an ugly 0-5-1 slide. Almost as important as garnering the two points? The way we played. Disciplined. Forceful, as evidenced by our...2024
