Slot Jordan Staal next to Evgeni Malkin
We have heard the rumors all offseason as the Penguins failed to add scoring wingers. Bill Guerin remains a free agent while Alexei Ponikarovsky will try his hand on the West Coast. While the team still may maintain interest in Guerin, putting Jordan Staal on the left side of Evgeni Malkin would certainly make sense. [...]

Offensive Corps: The 2009-2010 season ended in disappointment after the team won the Stanley Cup the season before. If it wasn’t for captain Sidney Crosby and his sudden goal scoring touch the Penguins very well could have finished lower than their 4th seed and 2nd round playoff exit. As previously mentioned, Crosby posted career highs [...]

Alexei Ponikarovsky certainly isn’t Ilya Kovalchuk. The Kings know this but had to settle for the second (at maximum) best option available to them to shore up their left side. However, what Ponikarovsky can bring to the table is more than what the scoresheet can provide – solid two-way play and often the first one [...]

There has been some chatter recently about the Penguins potentially moving Evgeni Malkin in order to free up some cap space to acquire some wingers, and open up more ice time for Jordan Staal. While I don’t plan to get into the topics you see everywhere else that discuss whether or not this would be [...]

The time has come to tally up all of those Fantasy 3 Stars polls that have been going on throughout the year. It was a tight race that came down to the final day of the year. I have decided to separate it into skaters and goalies because thanks to the high value voters placed [...]

I knew this day would eventually come, but can’t quite believe it’s finally here. Tonight the Pittsburgh Penguins will play their final ever regular-season game in Mellon Arena, a building that has been their home ever since the team’s inclusion within the 1967 expansion of the NHL and will soon no longer be the oldest [...]

I think it’s safe to say that last night’s game against the Boston Bruins couldn’t have been better for Matt Cooke and the Pittsburgh Penguins. Any retribution that was expected from the Bruins after high media anticipation for this game was kept to an absolute minimum, as Shawn Thornton and Matt Cooke dropped the gloves [...]

After being acquired from the Toronto Maple Leafs on Tuesday in exchange for Luca Caputi and Martin Skoula, Alexei Ponikarovsky is expected to make his debut today in a Pittsburgh uniform. It could be said that “Poni” was the biggest name traded in the last week, in a Trade deadline that saw just how little [...]

Ray Shero and the Pittsburgh Penguins seem to buy every year, creating a new fantasy star in the process. Last year we saw Chris Kunitz and Bill Guerin gain immediate value by flanking one of Sidney Crosby or Evgeni Malkin. This year Alexei Ponikarovsky reeps the benefits of playing with one of the two. Interestingly [...]

The Nashville Predators did it last night, and tonight the Pittsburgh Penguins will hope to complete their own sweep through Western Canada. It would be quite an accomplishment for a team that despite it’s superstar roster dropped 7 of its last 9 before heading out to Calgary, and five players from Pittsburgh are getting a [...]
