Sidney Crosby practices with Penguins (AP)
Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby practiced Monday but said he is no closer to returning from a concussion and neck injury that have sidelined him for most of the season. Coach Dan Bylsma felt with Jordan Staal and Simon Despres ready to resume skating after their injuries, it was better to include Crosby in the main practice rather than have him skate on his own. |
Penguins Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)
The Penguins delivered a poor performance in New Jersey on Sunday.
Go figure.
The Penguins rarely do anything right at the Prudential Center and again struggled in a 5-2 setback. A lack of offense is something the Penguins have become accustomed to in New Jersey's new home.
In fact, the Penguins' problems in New Jersey have reached the point where they couldn't be blamed if they'd prefer to avoid the Devils during the Eastern Conference playoffs this spring.
Consider the numbers: The Penguins are just 2-7-2 in their last 11 games in New Jersey, and they have dropped seven of eight during that stretch. Even more troubling is that, during those 11 games in New Jersey, the Penguins have scored only 15 goals. |
Kovalchuk leads Devils to 5-2 win over Penguins (AP)
While Ilya Kovachuk refuses to take credit for the New Jersey Devils' surge since the All-Star break, his teammates can see that the forward has elevated his game. Kovalchuk had a goal and two assists, and the Devils extended their winning streak to four games with a 5-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Sunday. |
Penguins sign C Vitale to an extension (AP)
The Pittsburgh Penguins signed center Joe Vitale to a two-year, $1.1 million contract extension on Friday, locking up a 26-year-old who has earned a regular spot in the lineup this season. Vitale has three goals and seven assists while dressing for 44 of Pittsburgh's 51 games, filling a third- or fourth-line role and serving on the Penguins' fourth-ranked penalty-killing unit. |
