Surprise heroes, second round playoffs – thoughts, sights, sounds…
Posted on 29 Apr 2011 by Dennis Patchett.
Out of nowhere, comes two unlikely potential playoff heroes… Michal Neuvirth and Dwayne Roloson. Neuvirth, a seemingly steady and technically efficient goalie, is facing 29.6 shots/game. He can thank the Cap's shin pads for keeping that number under 30 shots/game. Roloson, an energetic and somewhat spastic net minder, has seen over 36 shots/game - but he has been equally as im...

Tampa Invasion. Pens Win 3-2
Posted on 18 Apr 2011 by Dustin Keener.
The Pens made the trip to Tampa Bay knowing they needed to at least win one of the two games. Right from the opening faceoff this was a different Pittsburgh team from game two. They were everywhere. They won the races to every loose puck early on. Talbot finally scored a goal, on a shot that was perfectly timed on a fly by screen by Chris Conner. Forty six seconds later Asham buried a gre...

Penguins: Pen’s Playoff Preview
Posted on 12 Apr 2011 by Michael Waterloo.
With all of the injuries that the Penguins have faced this year, not many people would have guessed a few months ago that they would even make the playoffs, let alone be seeded highly enough to have home-ice advantage in the first round. That is exactly the place the Pens find themselves in, as they get ready to square off against the Tampa Bay Lightning in the first round of the 2011 Stanley...

Pens Fall to Flyers 5-2 at Home
Posted on 29 Mar 2011 by Dustin Keener.
The Penguins failed to defeat the Flyers on CONSOL Energy Center ice for the third time this season, Tuesday night. Coming off of four straight shootout victories, the Pens came out flying against the Flyers. In the first period they were rewarded with a two-on-one featuring Alex Kovalev and James Neal. Kovalev sent a wrister cruising past Sergei Bobrovsky low stick side, to take the lead w...

Penguins: Is The Current Team Easier To Root For?
Posted on 26 Mar 2011 by Michael Waterloo.
As an American society, in all facets of life, we seem to always want a feel-good story. The American Dream of course, is to come from nothing to something, and to make a name for oneself. This is especially true when it comes to sports. Many examples have even turned into movies, including “Radio”, “The Miracle On Ice”, “Secretariat”, and “Rudy...

Chicago gets 2 points during Hockey Day in America
Posted on 21 Feb 2011 by Kelly Barrett.
Today was Hockey Day in America, as presented by NBC. The Hawks were ready for their close ups. They knew all of America was watching, and they wanted to show us their skills, as Patrick Kane said during his warm up interview. The first period was all about the Hawks. The Penguins couldn’t even get the puck out of their zone. I thought for sure the Hawks had this win in the bag. ...

Stronger, Faster and more accurate
Posted on 30 Jan 2011 by Mika Oehling.
The NHL Super Skills competition this year revealed what most of us already knew; the NHL is superskilled. It's interesting to hear what's changed in the game according to the sportscasters, how back in the day, a 100 mph shot would have been unheard of, and how the fastest skater would never have been able to race around at that speed- and especially not backwards. There were some fun highligh...

Playground Pick’em
Posted on 28 Jan 2011 by Jason Wagensveld.
Tonight the Captains of the two All-Star Teams, Eric Staal and Nicklas Lidstrom, will pick their players for their team similar to the way we used to pick them at recess in elementary school. This has added a new sense of excitement and anticipation surrounding the All-Star Weekend. The Blue Jackets are represented by none other than Rick Nash. I think Nash will be picked by Staal early i...

Posted on 21 Dec 2010 by Robb Patty.

Here are my notes from that game. That was a 6-1 win by the Penguins. Walking in: Walking into the Consol Ener...

We’re Going Streaking!
Posted on 8 Dec 2010 by Michael Waterloo.
When a guy looks to get into a relationship, they look for their significant other to have similar interests to theirs. Going to the movies, having a good sense of humor, music taste, liking the same restaurants and the love of sports are some of the criteria that I go off of. I consider myself lucky to have these in common with my girlfriend Courtney. Well, all except one…..SHE HAT...

Crosby vs. Ovechkin Debate Is Over…For Now
Posted on 4 Dec 2010 by Justin Welton.
For years people have been debating who is better, Sidney Crosby or Alexander Ovechkin? I have always thought that Crosby was better than Ovechkin, in terms of being the best player in the world. Finally, people cannot say that I am being biased. Crosby is the leading point scorer (44) in the NHL. He is currently entertaining a 14-game point streak, a streak that has included 15 goals and 14 as...

On Ice Or Grass
Posted on 20 Nov 2010 by Michael Waterloo.
Isn't it funny how much can change in one week? Last week the Steelers were 6-2 and people around town were ready to buy their airplane ticket to Dallas for the Super Bowl. Last week the Penguins found themselves in a rough spot with their Goalie situation and the fans wanted Marc-Andre Fleury and Coach Dan Bylsma out of town. A week later, the Steelers lose a game to the Patriots, who ar...
