Penguins Nip Canucks in Shootout, 4-3
As season openers go, it wasn’t the prettiest of wins. Indeed, the Penguins blew a pair of two-goal leads while looking scrambled at times in their own zone.

Book Review: 100 Things Penguins Fans Should Know and Do Before They Die
When I first learned that fellow PenguinPoop blogger Rick Buker had written a new book about the Pittsburgh Penguins, I must confess that I wondered what he could’ve found to write about.
