After a terrible loss to the Senators the Penguins have rattled off two wins in a row, first they beat the thrashers and their hi powered offense, then last night they beat the Panthers in dramatic fashion. Hopefully now that the Penguins are starting to get healthy again they can get back to winning consistently. Even though they are still in first place they have been sliding fast since the injuries started piling up. In the games since Gonchar went out the Penguins record is 7-7, which is admirable with all the injuries they have had, but not what we expect from a Penguins team with this much talent. Also i need to see much more out of both Crosby and Malkin, both of them have been disappointing through the first 20 games of the season.
Farm Report:
With all the injuries the Penguins have suffered we have had a great opportunity to see what some of the baby Pens could do at the NHL level and I have to tell you I am extremely impressed with Ben Lovejoy. This guy is an NHL level defense man who does everything well, he is responsible defensively, makes great out let passes, and carries the puck well. He will be a great addition to our line up next year when either Letang, or Gonchar leaves via free agency.
