PENS win 3 staight

The Pittsburgh Penguins don't make excuses, they just continue to improve each week. The Pens beat the New Jersey Devils last night at the Consol Energy Center last night. Their 4-1 victory was their first game played against an Atlantic Division opponent thus far. Jordan Staal accounted for two of Pittsburgh's goals, which included a first period power play goal, and a third period "sweet" back handed goal. Then shortly after Staal made the score 3-1, league leader James Neal stole the puck from a NJ Devil, and put in his 8th goal of the season.

The  pens are playing without their two big guns in the line up and still continue to play great hockey. Most of that is attributed to a flawless system with great coaching and top ranking penalty killing, but mostly because these players believe in one another. The Pittsburgh Penguins are 6-2-2 and are without three starters. The Pens can only get better, and I've said it before, once this team gets completely healthy, they are going to be very difficult to beat. GO PENS....
