The Pittsburgh Penguins win over the Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday night seemed like a pretty big one for a couple of reasons. It not only improved them to 7-2-1 over their past 10 games and brought them somewhat closer to the playoff picture, it also brought them back to .500 (in the NHL’s goofy world at least) and was another impressive win over a really good team. Los Angeles is no joke, and the Penguins not only came away with two points against them, they hung with them and played a really strong game despite not having one of their best defenders (Marcus Pettersson) in the lineup.
