Sidney Crosby shook his head. Following the Pittsburgh Penguins’ squalid 6-5 overtime loss to the San Jose Sharks at PPG Paints Arena on Saturday — in which the home team fell despite holding a four-goal lead midway through the third period — the Penguins’ captain was asked if he could...

Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman Matt Duma cleared waivers and was assigned to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton of the American Hockey League (AHL) on Saturday.

The Pittsburgh Penguins recalled rookie goaltender Sergei Murashov from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton of the American Hockey League (AHL) under emergency roster conditions. Those conditions exist as newly-acquired defenseman Brett Kulak and goalie Stuart Skinner are not yet available to fully join the team a day after they were brought on via a...

The Pittsburgh Penguins’ dressing room perhaps wasn’t overjoyed by Friday’s trade of goalie Tristan Jarry to Edmonton. He was popular and mostly played well this season. But president of hockey ops/GM Kyle Dubas did the right thing. At 21, Sergei Murashov may not be the present of the Penguins’ goaltending...

The reality of modern-day sports is that players rarely spend their careers in just one town. Free agency, trades, owners unwilling to open their wallets (**cough cough Pirates cough cough**), salary caps, declining skills and a host of other reasons mean players can bounce from city to city over the...

The start of Thursday’s game between the Pittsburgh Penguins and Montreal Canadiens at PPG Paints Arena was delayed because of an accident on I-279 that snarled traffic entering the city, impacting several players who live in the north suburbs.

Sidney Crosby has dazzled with a collection of iconic moments over his 21 seasons in the NHL. Arguably, the first notable moment of that anthology came fairly early in his rookie season with the Pittsburgh Penguins in 2005-06. During a home contest Nov. 10, 2005, against the Montreal Canadiens, the...
