Did you spend all day yesterday watching the rain pour down and hoping that at least things would end well with a Celtic/Bruin doubleheader? If you did, you probably wished you'd gone out and stood in the rain all day instead; you'd feel about the same. We'll start with the Bruins, whose loss was a little less painful. Sure, Tim Thomas' shutout streak was broken, battered and mutilated. But every...

POSTGAME -Wow. What a game. This was a near duplicate of last season's game between these two teams with one minor difference; The Penguins won. Either way, this was a spectacular contest that had the feel of a late-season playoff push. -The Blue Jackets let up in the third and paid the price for it. They quit pressing the attack and essentially were playing vintage Ken HItchcock hockey. Get the puck...

Game 13 Penguins (10-2-0, 20 pts ) at Blue Jackets (6-5-0, 12 pts ) Nash is really good, but not as good as the two on the other card... Why does it matter? This game would have been more interesting two weeks ago when Columbus was 5-1. Now they're 6-5 and playing really poorly. This game is interesting if only to see how much the Hockey Gods can heap on the Pens before they crack. What has been happening...

Think about this for a moment. The last time the Penguins had a lineup in a game of consequence that didn't include Evgeni Malkin, John Leclair, one of the final mistakes of the Craig Patrick regime, was still a member of the club. That's how long Evgeni Malkin's consecutive streak was (or still is technically). The last 254 regular season games the Penguins have played have seen Evgeni Malkin take...
