After a solid 5-2 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Sunday, Pittsburgh Penguins fans were buzzing, not only because of the win, but because of the standing. Yes, it’s true, after a shaky season with a rough start, the Penguins recent hot streak has brought us right back to where we belong. First in the Metropolitan Division!
It’s been a long journey here. After dominating the league these last couple of seasons, it was quite a surprise to all of us to see the Penguins start off the season on the wrong note. Our spot in the division isn’t secured yet, but it definitely helps us in a lot of aspects.
