Does anyone remember back in January when the Penguins lost six in a row and all you heard was about how the Penguins were done for the season? Right after that the Penguins won 8 games in a row. The Penguins also hold the longest winning streak in the NHL this year. They are a streaky team. One win turns this whole series around.

Can the Penguins Beat the Flyers?
After watching Philadelphia cut through the black and gold like a knife going through a tub of warm butter in Games 1 and 2, the question on everyone’s mind is, “can the Penguins beat the Flyers?” The answer is yes.
But first, a history lesson. Step into my time machine, if you will, and set the date for April 26, 1992. Fresh off a dismal 7-2 [...]

If the Penguins are going to win Bylsma must pull in the reins
The Penguins have tried to win it their way. The Penguins war of attrition has failed and it’s time to look at what does work. What has worked is the New York Rangers game plan. The Rangers are 6-0 against the Flyers this year and the most goals the Flyers have scored against them in a game is 3. There are a few simple changes Penguins [...]

Flyers Torch Penguins 8-5 in Barnburner
It’s no secret the Penguins and Flyers have one of the most heated rivalries in all of sports. But they also play some incredibly entertaining hockey. Such was the case Friday night before a packed house at CONSOL Energy Center. In one of the most riveting games ever witnessed in Western Pennsylvania the never-say-die Flyers—paced by hat tric [...]

Gameday Poop: Game 2 – Penguins vs. Flyers – Questioning Bylsma’s Faith
The Penguins had seen the exact same scenario as what happened Wednesday before. Tell me if this sounds familiar. Exactly 10 days earlier on a Sunday afternoon the Penguins were playing the Flyers at the Consol. The Penguins got up two goals in the first five minutes, the crowd was bouncing of the walls. At the 4:58 mark the Flyers coach [...]

Penguins Update: Flyers A Lot Like Smokin’ Joe
The recently departed Joe Frazier was one of the greatest heavyweight boxing champions of all-time. Known as Smokin’ Joe for his relentless attacking style, Philadelphia’s favorite adopted son was a fighter of limited skills but enormous heart. Blessed with a granite chin, the squat and powerful Frazier would absorb an opponent’s best punches [...]

Pens’ Game 1 Loss to Flyers Best Outcome Short of Big Win
While the Pittsburgh Penguins celebrated their first period victory down in the South Side, their stunt doubles let Game 1 slip away in the remaining two periods and change. That may actually be better than getting a win they didn’t deserve. For that last 42:23 the Pens were embarrassingly out shot, out hit, out hustled, and out hearted [...]

Flyers Feast, Penguins Fizzle in Game 1
One of these days the Penguins are going to figure out how to play 60 minutes of solid hockey against the archrival Flyers. Steel City fans better pray that day comes soon—say, in time for Friday night’s Game 2 at CONSOL Energy Center. If not, it could be an awfully short postseason for the boys from the ‘Burgh.
In a virtual replay of previou [...]

Penguins Strategy?
I really hope that if the Pens are fortunate enough to have another large lead in this series, that they do not choose to use the “prevent defense” to protect that lead. It never works out well.
