Penguins Practice Update: Malkin to return for Game 1?
A huge update for the day before the Pittsburgh Penguins and Columbus Blue Jackets playoff series begins Yesterday was an off-day and a prep day, and I hope we're all prepared because this is Game 1 Eve and both teams were on the ice. But, before practice we learned that the Pittsburgh Penguins assigned Chuck Kobasew, Harry Zolnierczyk and Simon Despres to the AHL. Much needed reinforcements for the Baby Pens, who've lost tons of players to the NHL this season as both teams had to endure injuries. Luckily for the Penguins, Evgeni Malkin and Joe Vitale returned to their normal spots...

March 27 morning skate quotes: Darryl Sutter

The league's leading point scorer is certainly capable of scoring and setting up teammates, but the NHL isn't a one man show. He's going to need some help, production wise, by his teammates. Last game the Pens got a little help in breaking droughts, as Jussi...

David Legwand received a late game misconduct and major penalty, Pittsburgh's defensemen put home three own-goals and the Red Wings got out of a Dodge with a last-second marker to down the Penguins by a 5-4 overtime final Thursday in Detroit. Evgeni Malkin, Jussi Jokinen and James Neal each had two points for the Penguins, who fell to 5-4-1 in March. Thursday's game had little of the old Red Wings hate that has carried since the back-to-back Finals matchups of the 2008 and 2009 seasons, but this game had to have been frustrating for both teams nonetheless. Down half...
