I think we Penguins fans better get used to these wacky games while they have a chunk of their lineup out.

Kyle Brodziak and Eric Belanger scored for the Wild, while Pascal Dupuis had the only tally for the Penguins.

I am not a subscriber to the ESPN Insider service, but I did notice that they posted an article today that was titled "Wild Preparing for Fire Sale". It doesn't take rocket scientists or title insurance examiners to figure out that this may be the case sooner rather than later. If the team doesn't start playing better, GM Chuck Fletcher is going to start trading away players who will become...

There is...

from Tom Reed of Puck-rakers, Jason Chimera does not care that Eric Belanger’s rap sheet had been clean before Friday night’s hit from behind that sent the Blue Jackets winger off the ice on a stretcher. He believes Belanger’s check was dirty and that it merits a suspension. Chimera returned to Columbus on Saturday after he was held overnight in a St. Paul. Minn., hospital for observation....
