Remember the 2008-09 season when Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, and Kris Letang were all key parts of the Pittsburgh Stanley Cup team? They were 21 and 22 then, now they

The Pittsburgh Penguins’ three-man core of Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin and Kris Letang has played together for 19 seasons, a record for North American sports. It’s a nice story. The unbreakable bond of eternal brotherhood.

Penguins GM Kyle Dubas made a big decision last week by placing goalie Tristan Jarry, with three years remaining on his contract at $5.38M, on waivers.

Vince Dunn scored the go-ahead goal with a two-man advantage late in the second period as the Seattle Kraken defeated the visiting Pittsburgh Penguins 4-1 on Saturday, spoiling a historic afternoon for Sidney Crosby.

The Penguins held on the rest of the third period to secure at least a loser’s point, and then controlled the puck for most of overtime. Crosby then turned to his trademark backhand for his 95th career game-winning goal, and fourth tally in five games to send the Penguins back to Pittsburgh in better spirits.

As it stands, the Penguins are in fourth-to-last place in the Eastern Conference and carry a goal differential of minus-36. It's a Penguins season that is on pace to be the worst since Sidney Crosby's rookie year in 2005-06.

Sidney Crosby scored an emotional overtime winner with a backhand shot that amazingly sliced between the almost nonexistent space between Utah HC goalie Connor Ingram’s pad and glove.

Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman Erik Karlsson had a rough night and more than a few decisions that would make one kindly question his thought process.

The next opponent is the Pittsburgh Penguins. It’s the final contest of a seven-game road trip that has not been kind to the Penguins. They’re on a three-game losing streak, despite the fact that none of those opponents are playoff teams. Utah hopes to extend that skid to four games.

The Penguins forward left Saturday's game against the Kraken with a lower-body injury after colliding with Chandler Stephenson.

Kris Letang has seen labor strife between the NHL and NHLPA before. More than a decade ago, the league canceled the first three months of the 2012-13 season after several negotiations between the NHL and NHLPA for a collective bargaining agreement stalled out.
