It is a simple formula.

Fri, 6 Nov 2009 13:29:00 -0500 http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/09310/1011317-61.stm?cmpid=penguins.xml This was such foreign territory that it stung just that much more. The Penguins had not given up more than four goals in a game before last night. Then they lost, 5-2, to the Los Angeles Kings at Staples Center. Fri, 6 Nov 2009 09:06:00 -0500 http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/09310/1011124-125.stm?cmpid=penguins.xml When will Dan Bylsma realize that Tyler Kennedy is the best winger on the team? He is stuck on the third line and doesn't play on the power play or kill penalties. Although Pascal Dupuis is a very good skater with a hard slap shot, he does not have the hands to be a top-six forward and Chris Bourque looks lost out there. At the very least, don't you think that Kennedy should be on the second power-play unit? Fri, 6 Nov 2009 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/09310/1011271-61.stm?cmpid=penguins.xml Pavel Datsyuk and Henrik Zetterberg scored in the shootout to lift the host Detroit Red Wings to a 2-1 victory against San Jose, snapping the Sharks' six-game winning streak. Fri, 6 Nov 2009 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/09309/1011016-61.stm?cmpid=penguins.xml Forward Max Talbot stepped from the visiting players' runway to the bench at a nearly empty Staples Center yesterday about 20 minutes before the Penguins were scheduled to practice. Thu, 5 Nov 2009 01:16:00 -0500 http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/09309/1010794-125.stm?cmpid=penguins.xml On shootouts, would it be better for the shooter to come in with speed instead of the slower, methodical approach many Penguins players employ? I want the goalie to be guessing and not just staying square to the shooter all the way in. The skater can always slow down, but not speed up, at the end of the attempt. Thu, 5 Nov 2009 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/09309/1010997-61.stm?cmpid=penguins.xml The accoutrement that Pascal Dupuis will strap on tonight when the Penguins play the Los Angeles Kings at Staples Center will be standard hockey issue -- jersey, pads, thick pants, skates, gloves, helmet. Thu, 5 Nov 2009 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/09308/1010664-61.stm?cmpid=penguins.xml The Penguins came away from Honda Center with a 4-3 win against the Anaheim Ducks last night, giving them a slew of notable milestones.

Wed, 4 Nov 2009 02:18:00 -0500 http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/09308/1010505-125.stm?cmpid=penguins.xml Hockey players and organizations are famously tight-lipped about injuries during the playoffs. But it seems as if their secrecy is now becoming the norm throughout the regular season. Am I off-base, or have you noticed this? If so, why do you think this is the case? Are players now convinced that revealing an injury means that you're just letting opponents know where to direct their hits? Wed, 4 Nov 2009 00:00:00 -0500
