They have changed the Geno goal to Sid, as it brushed him going by. So Sid now passes former Kings' great Marcel Dionne and is alone in sixth place in all-time NHL scoring with 1,772 points.

Sending Jake Livanavage back to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton strikes me as a compassionate humanitarian gesture.

I'm no hockey scientist, but this is a pretty effective way to avoid giving up a last-minute lead.

Tonight another example of the big picture. Can Pens score? Yep. Can they defend? Nope.

Hendrix Lapierre said before the game, he got some advice from Tommy Novak on skating with 71: "He's played with Geno a lot, so I said, ‘What's Geno like? Playing with him, what does he like?' He said, ‘Honestly, he's too good. Just let him do his thing, and he'll find you.'"

Since opening night, Pens have allowed 31 goals — tied with Vancouver for most in the league in that span. And Pens still have one period to play tonight.

I interviewed Daniel Laatsch at one of the Penguins' offseason prospect camps a few years ago, then wrote a story about him. A week later, he emailed, thanking me for writing about him. Really nice person. AND he's from one of our country's eight Altoonas (Wisconsin).

Harrison Brunicke hustles back and strips the forward of the puck. Mutter isn't happy about it and takes a run at Brunicke. Solovyov and Howe immediately go after him. Hope Brunicke is okay!

Sid was just 3 for his last 15 in shootouts prior to tonight, but he's now converted 2 straight (last March 21 v Hellebuyck).

Mike Sullivan is scheduled to serve as one of the referees for tonight's Stars-Penguins game. That strikes me as an extremely rash reaction to losing Igor Shesterkin for the season.
