Just when it looked like the 2024-25 Pittsburgh Penguins season was going to start slipping away from itself, and just when the schedule was starting to get really intense, they went ahead and put together a four-game winning streak that is still going as they head into Friday’s game against the New York Rangers.
It has brought them to within a game of getting back to .500, has them just one point out of a playoff spot (though with more games played than just about everybody else — points percentage still has them further back) and has completely changed the recent outlook.
