Pens make big line changes in practice

Who would have ever thought that the mighty Pittsburgh Penguins would sit 29th in goals per game 7 games into the 2015-16 season? With just 8 goals in 7 games, that's exactly where they are.

Just 3 days ago we asked if it was time to split up Sidney Crosby and Phil Kessel and the answer now coming from Pens practice today appears to be "yes".

Some shuffling of the lines today at #Pens practice: 9-87-72 61-71-81 14-13-41 57-7-11/24

If you don't know the players' numbers by heart, the lines this morning used are:

  • Quite the fall from grace for Kunitz and Perron, but neither are generating any sort of offense (both 0 points in 7 games).
