  • • Ex-Penguins Update: Thirty-Three and a Third Edition
    It’s been a while since I posted an Ex-Penguins Update. With a little time to kill between games and no obvious story lines to pursue, I thought I’d compile one. Since NHL teams are roughly a third of the way through the season, give or take, I’ll call it the Thirty-Three and a Third Edition. Stats are updated for games played through December 11. I’ll start at the top and work my way down. ...2024
  • • Mike Sullivan is the Right/Wrong Coach for the Penguins
    Confused about my title? Imagine how I felt trying to write the article! To digress, I’ve been discussing the plight of our Penguins quite a bit lately with my PP colleagues, Caleb DiNatale and Other Rick, as you can well imagine. More often than not the topic of our conversation centers around head coach Mike Sullivan. I’ll be honest. I would have dismissed Sullivan at the end of the 2022-23 seas...2024
  • • Ex-Penguins Update: Halloween Special
    I thought I’d take a break from the relentlessly grim news surrounding our skidding Penguins and offer some lighter fare. Hence, my first Ex-Penguins Update of the young season. Stats include games played up through October 30. Seattle’s Jared McCann leads the expatriates with 14 points (5+9). Trading the speedy winger with the sizzling shot for nondescript Filip Hållander (take a bow,...2024

  • • Dubas’ Trade Strategy: Out with the Old, In with the New
    The Penguins are off to a rough start, to say the least. Over their last six games, they’re 0-5-1 and now sit at the bottom of the division, ranking 31st in the league, just above the Sharks. At this rate, they’re looking like a lottery team.   So, what should the Penguins do? Fire the coach? Most coaches would’ve been fired for less, so what’s the holdup?   Well, according to sources within the o...2024
  • The First Of The Season
    • The First Of The Season
    Sometimes, there are players who bounce through the NHL that teams may have moved or given up on long before they hit their strides. Goaltender Filip Gustavsson may be one of those players as he seems to be a solid netminder with the Minnesota Wild. Drafted 55th-overall by the Pittsburgh Penguins in 2016, they moved him to Ottawa in a forgettable trade for Vince Dunn, and Ottawa shipped him to Min...2024

    For the first time in what feels like forever, it seems like the Pittsburgh Penguins may actually have a plan. Throughout the Jim Rutherford and Ron Hextall eras, it felt…...2024

  • • Penguins Recall St. Ivany
    The Penguins have summoned 24-year-old defenseman Jack St. Ivany from their Wilkes-Barre/Scranton farm club on an emergency recall, the team announced today. Ryan Shea, recalled on a similar basis on Thursday, was returned to the Baby Pens. A rangy 6’3” 198-pounder, St. Ivany was drafted in the fourth round by the Flyers back in 2018 when Ron Hextall was the GM in Philly. The Manhattan Beach, Cali...2024
  • • Should the Penguins Complete the Deconstruct Initiated by Ron Hextall?
    The thought’s been buzzing around in the back of my mind for a while now and I figured I’d finally commit it to paper (or e-type). As unthinkable (perhaps distasteful is a better word) as it would be, should the Penguins bite the bullet and complete the roster deconstruction (or destruction) unintentionally initiated by Ron Hextall? Tragically for the fans and team alike, not to mention our former...2023

  • • Penguins Stave Off Flyers for Must-Win Win
    Last summer Fenway Sports Group was reported to have asked general manager Ron Hextall to share his plan for retooling the Penguins. Hexy assured them he had a plan, but that it was hard to articulate. Along those lines, I’m sure coach Mike Sullivan has a plan for protecting third-period leads. And I’m sure he and his staff communicate that plan to the players. Unfortunately, something always seem...2023

  • • Penguins Update: Should Nylander Have Been Called Up Earlier?
    In the wake of Alex Nylander’s very impressive black-and-gold debut last night, it fairly screams the question. Should he have been called up earlier? And if so, could it have had an effect on the moves we made at the trade deadline? About six weeks ago, in the midst of a dry spell from our bottom six to rival rainfall totals in Death Valley, I posted an article suggesting that perhaps it was time...2023

  • • Penguins Update: The Day After (and After That)
    Hey all. I’d originally intended to post the first section of this article yesterday, but life and work combined to throw a Jacob Trouba chicken-wing elbow my way. Since many of the thoughts are still valid, I thought I’d publish it now and tack on a second section to include today’s (Friday’s) moves. Here goes: ############# I feel for Ron Hextall and Mikael Granlund. I really do. I can’t for one...2023

  • • Is the Penguins’ (Draft) Future in Good Hands with Ron Hextall?
    Originally, this was going to be a team comparison between the Penguins and our hated state rivals, the Flyers, along the lines of my recent article about the Hurricanes. However, a quick scan of the Flyers’ stats changed my focus. Ah, the best laid plains of mice and men… Before I begin, I’ll digress a bit. The friendship between Pens bench boss Mike Sullivan and Flyers skipper John Tortore...2023

    Photo by Bruce Bennett Studios via Getty Images Studios/Getty Images With Pekka Rinne scoring last night, it’s worth remembering that the first NHL goalie-goal was scored in Colorado Last night, NHL fans were treated with one of the most exciting plays in hockey - the goalie goal. With his team leading 4-2 and only 25 seconds remaining in the game, Nashville Predators goalie Pekka Rinne figured...2020

  • • Did Ron Hextall Do the Penguins a Solid in the Draft?
    Giving credit to former general manager Ron Hextall in any way, shape or form generally isn’t the way to make friends or influence people in these parts. Nor will it win you any popularity contests among the black-and-gold faithful. Indeed, the former Philly GM is generally regarded by Penguins Nation as a villain or worse…the man responsible for expediting the end of our glorious postseason run t...2024
  • • Penguins Update: Winds of Change a Blowin’
    In a development somewhat reminiscent of last spring’s executive house cleaning, the Penguins will not renew the contracts of Wilkes-Barre/Scranton head coach J.D. Forrest and assistant Kevin Porter. The announcement came just two days after the Baby Pens were swept by arch-rival Lehigh Valley in the opening round of the AHL Calder Cup playoffs. Former Pens GM Ron Hextall and POHO Brian Burk...2024

  • • Penguins Update: Is Mike Sullivan Feeling the Heat?
    As the Penguins lurch toward their second straight non-playoff season, it’s fair to say long-time coach Mike Sullivan is beginning to feel the heat. Indeed, media outlets that have traditionally been supportive of Sully are beginning to take a hard look at his performance behind the bench.

    I was reading an article by Dan Kingerski on Pittsburgh Hockey Now when I came across an item that sent a shiver down my spine. Namely, that Stan Bowman (pictured above) has popped up as a possible candidate to replace Ron Hextall. Scion of former Penguins coach and hockey legend, Scotty Bowman, Stan served as the general manager in Chicago from 2009-2021 where he presided over three Stanley Cup w...2023

The announcement was made in a joint statement issued by Fenway Sports Group principal owner John Henry and FSG chairman Tom Werner.  Assistant general manager Chris Pryor was also...2023

    Hey all. With so much negativity surrounding our Penguins these days as we stagger down the homestretch, I thought I’d reach for a positive. Here goes: There’s probably a pretty good chance Penguins GM Ron Hextall will lose his job this summer. Even if our Penguins manage to squeak into the postseason for a 17th consecutive season, they’ve fallen far short of expectations. Doubly so when you consi...2023

    It’s awfully hard not to notice how well former Penguins forward Kasperi Kapanen is doing in his new digs in St. Louis. Indeed, since being claimed on waivers by the Blues on February 25, the speedy 26-year-old forward’s been reborn. On Thursday night, he scored the overtime winner against the Rangers on what was described as a “brilliant shot” by the Blues’ color commentator. Yes, you read ...2023

    February 28, 2023. Perhaps not a day that will live in infamy for Penguins Nation, but maybe it should. Late in the third period of a 3-1 victory over Nashville, then-Preds forward Mikael Granlund broke free and shot the puck, center mass, on Pens goalie Tristan Jarry. As Jarry made an easy save, an eerie reverse premonition popped into my head. Something to the effect of, “Gee, I hope we don’t ac...2023
