The Pittsburgh Penguins have been lacking in second and third line scoring going into today’s game with the Boston Bruins.     They were able to get a goal from someone that does not play on the first line and that goal ended up being the game winner, as the Penguins were able to get a 2-1 victory in Boston Saturday afternoon.

The Pittsburgh Penguins winning streak came to an end Wednesday night in Toronto on the second night of a home and home.      It was a strong effort by the Penguins backup goalie only giving up 1 goal for the entire night.     His teammates were frustrated because they were not able to help out their struggling net minder as the Toronto Maple Leafs won the game just 1-0.

The Pittsburgh Penguins went down 4-1 in the third period when they put together a great comeback, that was a total team effort.      The Comeback was topped off by Evgeni Malkin getting the game equalizing goal, and then after a scoreless overtime the shootout defining goal for a 5-4 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs.

  The Pittsburgh Penguins Host Toronto tonight for the first of a traditional home and home game.     Malkin and the Penguins appear poised to carry their 7 game winning streak into the second half of the season, while the Maple Leafs are fighting for a spot in the Playoffs. The Penguin’a Allstars had a combined 4 points with Malkin scoring a goal and getting an assist to lead the group.    Malkin is hoping he and James Neal can continue that Hot Play for a little while longer.

  Sorry Tampa Bay Fans, but this is a great sample of What Makes Malkin The Best Player In Hockey!

Alexander Ovechkin has decided since he was to sit out 3 games because of an illegal hit to Michalek, that he would not take part in All Star Weekend. Because he made this choice, James Neal was added to the roster. This will be Neal’s 1st All Star game and he will be accompanied by Evgeni Malkin and Kris Letang.    Here is the LINK to James Neals Biggest Highlights!

The Pittsburgh Penguins go into St Louis tomorrow night just 6 points out of first place in the Eastern Conference, and they are sitting 5th overall in the conference all by themselves.    Not too bad for a team that almost 2 weeks ago was on their way out of the Playoff race with a 6 game losing streak.

The Pittsburgh Penguins continue their winning streak, Malkin and Neal continue their hot play and  the Penguins win today by the score of 4-3 in overtime over the Washington Capitals.
