It has been one step forward, two steps back for Penguins this season

There have been some ups, there have been some downs, and they always seem to end up right back where they started with a few people feeling a little sick. Every time it seems like they are going to turn things around continue on the right track, something happens to derail whatever progress they made.

After losing three of their first five games to start the season, they steamrolled their way through Canada on a four-game winning streak that saw them outscore Toronto, Edmonton, Calgary, and Vancouver by a 23-6.

They followed that up by immediately losing nine out of 10 to put them in an early season hole in the standings.
