With so many games in so few days, it’s been easy to get swept up in the day-to-day hustle and bustle routine of being able to handle just the very short-term and next game around the bend.
This week is a little different for the Penguins. For the first time in a while, they don’t have four games on the schedule this week. This bit of a breather is welcomed, and also provides us the opportunity to step back and look at what developments have emerged.
The Pens have played 32 games already, which is 57% of their 56 game schedule, if you can believe it.
