During the Penguins’ victory over the Flyers on Tuesday night, I was encouraged to discover that ten different black-and-gold skaters registered at least a point. These days, that sort of production from up and down the lineup has been rarer than a Liberty Head Nickel in mint condition.
Since the start of the New Year, our big guns have been blazing hot, and I mean blazing. Sidney Crosby, Jake Guentzel, Kris Letang, Evgeni Malkin and Bryan Rust are all scoring at a point per game clip or better.
