Pittsburgh Penguins blog for the five time, five time, five time, FIVE TIME Stanley Cup Champions
Here are your Pens Points for this Monday morning… The Pittsburgh Penguins blew a late 1-0 lead en route to a 2-1 overtime loss in Game One of the 2025 Global Series, but Pittsburgh rebounded on Sunday. Even with a patchwork lineup, the team is still led by Evgeni Malkin and Sidney Crosby, who helped […]
Pregame A bunch of changes for Pittsburgh from last game; Sergei Murashov is in net. Ville Koivunen is hurt, so the team opts to bump Ben Kindel back to the third line, shuffling Connor Dewar up with the first line and Kevin Hayes looks to do a Justin Brazeau impression on the second line. First […]

There’s an unfortunate pattern developing for the Penguins during this 1-4-1 stretch to start November. There was that 3-0 third-period lead against the Toronto Maple Leafs, followed by four unanswered goals and a regulation loss last Monday. Last Thursday, there was that 3-0 second-period lead against the Washington Capitals. That was gone by the end […]
Pregame The Penguins go global with this lineup, including Arturs Silovs in net. Sidney Crosby gets a nice welcome but Erik Karlsson is welcomed back to his country with an even bigger one. Crosby yields the ceremonial pre-game puck drop to Karlsson as well, First period Very few whistles in the early going but not […]

The Pittsburgh Penguins return to game action this weekend with two games in Sweden against the Nashville Predators. Before they play let us take a look at some stunning numbers that have stood out from their first 17 games of the 2025-26 NHL regular season. Suddenly elite goaltending Nothing changes a team’s short-term outlook — […]
Here are your Pens Points for this Friday morning… Is the rapid ascent of 11th overall pick Ben Kindel the Pittsburgh Penguins’ greatest surprise to begin the 2025-26 season? [PensBurgh] Defenseman Ryan Graves’ Penguins tenure has been a rocky road thus far. Beginning the 2025-26 season in the American Hockey League after the Penguins waived […]
The Pittsburgh Penguins have had many a pleasant surprise over their first 17 games. They’ve gotten a lot of life out of mid-level free agent signings like Justin Brazeau, Anthony Mantha and Parker Wotherspoon. Arturs Silovs has looked the part of an NHL goalie. Tristan Jarry and even Ryan Graves have started upon redemption journeys, […]
It was a day of adventure for the Pittsburgh Penguins who had the day off from hockey activities and were able to explore their temporary host city of Stockholm, Sweden and take in some local culture. While this is primarily a business trip for the Penguins, it’s good for the players to take some down […]
Some little bits and pieces around the Penguins as they take in Sweden this week. Erik Karlsson sets the stage on what to expect during the games. Those opponents were out having a good time for themselves. It’s an interesting nugget that Europe will mark the third different continent where Penguins vs. Predators games have […]
It’s not easy to be an AHL franchise, about as soon as things go well then everything changes. Wilkes-Barre has had to deal with three of their top five scorers (Danton Heinen, Ville Koivunen, Ryan Graves) getting called up and then they lost AHL October goalie of the month Sergei Murashov on top of that. […]
Here are your Pens Points for this Wednesday morning… One of the only negative storylines surrounding the otherwise impressive Pittsburgh Penguins this season has been the team’s (and more specifically, goalie Arturs Silovs’) play in the shootout. The Penguins are 0-3 in the shooting contest this year, but even with Silovs’ poor play for the […]
It is far from the most pressing concern for the Pittsburgh Penguins this season, but holy crap is this team bad in shootouts. They are 0-3 in shootouts this season, and over the past four years have been objectively one of the least successful teams in the NHL’s tie-breaking skills competition. It is leaving a […]
Now that the Penguins are over in Stockholm for a few days we have a good opportunity to look at how their prospects are doing this season. Today will be out second one of the year, with a reminder that since these semi-regular updates are in that it isn’t going to be a comprehensive look […]
The Penguins’ Friday matchup with the Nashville Predators at Avicii Arena in Stockholm, Sweden will mark the fifth time the franchise has headed overseas for a regular-season game. The game will also mark the third time Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin and Kris Letang are taking the ice for NHL action in Sweden. Here’s a look […]
Monday was day one of a four day off stretch for the Pittsburgh Penguins as they prepare to pack their bags and head to Europe to partake in the NHL Global Series this weekend in Stockholm, Sweden. This will be the Penguins second trip to Stockholm to play, previously doing so back in 2008 against […]
When it comes to their results, the past week had to be a little frustrating for the Pittsburgh Penguins. They carried the play for large portions of the week, and against some really good teams, but still only managed to come away with three out of a possible eight points in the standings. Given the […]
Here are your Pens Points for this Monday morning… The Pittsburgh Penguins closed out a back-to-back set on Sunday afternoon, hosting the Los Angeles Kings. Of note, it was highly touted goalie prospect Sergei Murashov’s NHL debut. The Kings came out as the victors in what was a 3-2 win over Pittsburgh. [Highlights] Despite the […]
