GAME NOTES By: Bob Grove As of 05.21.13

THE SERIES The Penguins host the Ottawa Senators tonight in Game Five of their Eastern Conference Semifinal series.

Pittsburgh took a 2-0 series lead with home victories in Games One and Two, then in Game Three at Ottawa last Sunday night fell in double overtime, 2-1, on a goal by Colin Greening at 7:39. That gave the Senators a lift heading into Game Four at home on Wednesday night. . . The Game Three loss snapped the Penguins’ streak of seven straight road playoff overtime victories. It was Pittsburgh’s first such loss since falling, 3-2, in Buffalo in Game Five of the 2001 Eastern Conference semifinal series on a goal by former Penguin Stu Barnes.

It also snapped a streak of five straight road playoff victories over the Senators, matching a Pittsburgh record against one team in the postseason. . . Greening’s overtime goal gave him a goal in each of the first three games of the series. . . Tomas Vokoun made 35 saves and Evgeni Malkin had one goal and one assist in Pittsburgh’s 4-1 Game One victory May 14. The Penguins’ power play went 2-for-4 in that game and was clicking at 36.0 percent through seven games, far and away tops in the Stanley Cup playoffs at that point. . . Sidney Crosby recorded his second career playoff hat trick in a 4-3 Game Two victory, scoring all three in the opening 21:15 of the game. It was his first playoff hat trick since Game Two at Washington in the second round of the 2009 playoffs, and it was the third-fastest ever recorded by a Pittsburgh player in the post-season; Mario Lemieux had three continued on page 8

goals in the opening 6:55 of Game Five against Philadelphia in 1989 and Kevin Stevens had three goals in the opening 15:03 in Game Three at Boston in 1992. . . Kyle Turris’ first-period goal in Game Two snapped the Penguins’ streak of killing 10 straight playoff penalties. . . Game Six, if necessary, will be played in Ottawa on Sunday night, with Game Seven to be played here at CONSOL Energy Center next Tuesday night, if necessary. The 2010 playoff series between these teams also went to six games.

THE PENGUINS

Crosby became the fifth player in team history to record 100 career playoff points with his Game Two hat trick, joining Mario Lemieux, Jaromir Jagr, Kevin Stevens and Ron Francis. He was also the secondfastest to do so, getting his 100th point in his 75th career playoff game; Mario needed 50 games to record 100 playoff points. . . When the Penguins chased starter Craig Anderson here in Game Two, it marked the third time in eight playoff games Pittsburgh’s opponent changed goaltenders during the game. . .

Tyler Kennedy has made a career of producing goals against Ottawa, with 11 in 20 career regular-season games against the Senators — his most against one team. But he hadn’t scored a playoff goal against Ottawa until he beat Craig Anderson late in the second period of Game Three to give the Penguins a 1-0 lead. . . Crosby took 43 faceoffs in Game Three, a career post-season high . . . Malkin had 10 shots in the Game Three loss, matching his career high for continued on page 11

a playoff game and the most he’s ever had in a road playoff game. He did not register a point in the game, snapping his playoff scoring streak at eight games. . .

The Penguins’ penalty killers were three-forthree in Game Three, pushing their playoff percentage to 90.0 entering Game Four. . . Brandon Sutter won 21 of 36 faceoffs in Game Three. . . Paul Martin had nine points through the first nine games of these playoffs, a career single-year playoff high, and he had not been minus in his last 22 games this season (plus-24) before playing Game Four. . . The Penguins were 3-4 all-time in multiple-overtime games after their Game Three defeat.

THE SENATORS Ottawa’s Jason Spezza returned to the lineup in Game Three, his first action since Jan. 27 against the Penguins. Spezza, who had back surgery in early February, did not register a point but had four shots and won 15 of 25 faceoffs. . .

Spezza is the Senators’ second all-time leading playoff scorer behind Daniel Alfredsson, whose short-handed goal with 29 seconds to play in regulation in Game Three set the stage for Greening’s overtime winner. . .

Anderson made 49 saves in the Game Three victory, one game after being pulled in a 4-3 loss here. . . Erik Karlsson played a game-high 39:48 in Game Three and attempted 14 shots on goal.

The First Ever ES Hybrid. 40 MPG EPA-Estimated.* At first glance, it’s a bold statement of style. Read between the lines, however, and you’ll discover that the first ever ES Hybrid doesn’t merely make a statement, it backs it up. Take, for instance, the sleek, sculpted appearance. It’s not just for show—the aerodynamic design boosts fuel efficiency up to an EPA-estimated 40 MPG.* And while the hand-stitched panels and precision-crafted interior make a stunning first impression, the available next-generation technologies in connectivity elevate the conversation. Ultimately, the 2013 ES Hybrid not only sends a message—it’s sure to build a following.

AROUND THE NHL

By Mike Prisuta

FIRST THINGS FIRST:

© Getty Images

Bruins defensemen Matt Bartkowski (Mt . Lebanon) and Torey Krug both scored their first NHL goals in Game One of the Boston-New York Rangers Eastern Conference semifinal series . In doing so they became the ninth and 10th players in Bruins history to score a goal in the playoffs before scoring one in the regular season .

Matt Bartkowski

A SEVENTH TO REMEMBER:

The Rangers’ 5-0, Game Seven victory over Washington in Round One was the largest Game Seven margin of victory in Rangers’ history, the first road win in a Game Seven in Rangers’ history and the eighth shutout by a road team in a Game Seven in NHL history .

The Caps-Rangers confrontation went seven games despite New York trailing for only 34:23 in the series .

LEADER OF THE PACK: Chicago head coach Joel Quenneville emerged from the Blackhawks first two games of the Western Conference semifinals against Detroit with an all-time postseason record of 77-68, and stood as the NHL’s active leader in playoff wins (77) and games coached (145) .

RED WINGS ALTERATIONS: Detroit advanced to the second round for the sixth time in the last seven seasons, but did so this time in a manner the Red Wings hadn’t previously .

In Round One against Anaheim the Red Wings went to overtime in a series four times for the first time . And center Gustav Nyquist became the first rookie in Detroit history to record two overtime points (a goal in Game Two and an assist in Game Four against Anaheim) in one playoff year .

THE GREAT SLAVA: Los Angeles defenseman Slava Voynov scored three goals in the Kings’ first seven games this postseason and all three were game-winning goals . That tied a Kings record that had been held previously by Dustin Brown, Jeff Carter and Wayne Gretzky .

MARIO LEMIEUX CO-OWNER/CHAIRMAN

Mario Lemieux, one of the most respected figures in National Hockey League history, is in his 14th season as co-owner and chairman of the board of the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Under the leadership of Lemieux and co-owner Ron Burkle, the Penguins have become one of the premier franchises in the NHL and in all of sports, leading the way in fan relations, youth marketing, community outreach and innovative technology while consistently putting a winning product on the ice — including six straight playoff appearances and a Stanley Cup championship in 2009.

The Penguins entered the 2012-13 season having sold out 254 straight games while setting new standards for local television ratings, merchandise sales, website traffic and social media.

Lemieux and Burkle were driving forces in the quest for a new multi-purpose arena for Pittsburgh and were proud to open CONSOL Energy Center in August, 2010. The sparkling facility is rated one of the top facilities in North America and hosted such national events as the 2012 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament Second and Third Rounds and the 2012 NHL Draft.

Known as Le Magnifique, Lemieux was one of the greatest players in NHL history from 1984-97 and 2000-06, winning six league scoring titles, three MVP awards and two Conn Smythe Trophies in addition to two Stanley Cups.

An immaculately gifted 6-foot-4 centerman, he dominated play for parts of three decades despite a relentless series of medical setbacks, including multiple back surgeries and a battle with Hodgkin’s disease. He retired in 2006 as the No. 7 all-time scorer in NHL history with 1,723 points. He also ranks eighth all-time in goals (690) and 10th in assists (1,033).

After retiring as a player in 1997, he put together an ownership group to buy the Penguins out of bankruptcy in September, 1999 and then returned to the ice on Dec. 27, 2000 — becoming the first player-owner of the modern era.

In addition to his legendary hockey accomplishments, he continues to oversee the Mario Lemieux Foundation for cancer research and neo-natal research and hosts its annual celebrity golf tournament, which has raised more than $9 million for charity. More information is available at mariolemieux.org.

The Penguins ownership group, local labor organizations and members of the Pittsburgh business community honored Lemieux in 2012 with a statue to commemorate his career and contributions to the city and the region.

Appropriately named “Le Magnifique,” the statue, by nationally-acclaimed sculptor Bruce Wolfe, can be seen outside of the Trib Total Media gate at CONSOL Energy Center.

Mario and his wife, Nathalie, and their four children live in Sewickley.

RON BURKLE CO-OWNER

Ron Burkle, one of the preeminent investors in retail, manufacturing and distribution industries, is in his 14th season as co-owner of the Penguins.

He teamed with Mario Lemieux to buy the team out of bankruptcy in September, 1999, and together they have become one of the outstanding ownership tandems in professional sports.

Among Burkle’s many significant contributions to the Penguins was his essential role in negotiations for a new arena. CONSOL Energy Center is considered one of the finest indoor facilities in North America and has attracted many national-level events to Pittsburgh — including the 2013 NCAA Frozen Four.

Under the leadership of Lemieux and Burkle, the Penguins have sold out every game for five-plus seasons and consistently rank among the most fan-friendly and community-minded teams in the NHL and all of pro sports.

The Penguins reached back-to-back Stanley Cup Finals in 2008 and 2009 and won the Cup in ‘09. The team’s solid foundation of ownership has enabled hockey management to spend to the salary cap, sign many of the team’s young core players to long-term contracts and put a competitive team on the ice year after year — leading to six straight playoff berths.

Burkle founded the Yucaipa Companies in 1986 and has served as Chairman of the Board and controlling shareholder of numerous companies, including Alliance Entertainment, Golden State Foods, Dominick’s, Fred Meyer, Ralphs and Food4Less.

Ron is Co-Chairman of the Burkle Center for International Relations at UCLA and is broadly involved in the community. He is a trustee of the Carter Center, the National Urban League, Frank Lloyd Wright Conservancy and AIDS Project Los Angeles (APLA). Ron was the Founder and Chairman of the Ralph’s/Food4Less Foundation and the Fred Meyer Inc. Foundation. He was a member of the board of Occidental Petroleum Corporation (NYSE: OXY), KB Home (NYSE: KBH), Kaufman & Broad S.A. (Euronext: KOF), Yahoo! (Nasdaq: YHOO), the J. Paul Getty Trust, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, The Music Center and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles.

He has received numerous honors and awards, including the AFL-CIO’s Murray Green Meany Kirkland Community Service Award, the Los Angeles County Federation Man of the Year, the Los Angeles County Boy Scouts Jimmy Stewart Person of the Year Award and the APLA Commitment to Life Award.

DAVID MOREHOUSE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER & PRESIDENT

David Morehouse has established himself as one of the most dynamic senior executives in the National Hockey League.

Since being named President of the Penguins in April, 2007, Morehouse has reshaped the team’s image and strategic vision with an emphasis on branding, fan relations, youth marketing, community interaction, corporate outreach and innovative technology.

He was given the additional responsibilities of Chief Executive Officer in September, 2010, and oversees every aspect of the Penguins’ operations, reporting directly to co-owners Mario Lemieux and Ron Burkle.

Under Morehouse’s leadership, the Penguins quickly developed a new commitment to innovative fan outreach — including an annual event where players personally deliver season tickets to fans’ homes and a special preseason game where all 18,000 tickets are distributed free to local youth.

His emphasis on branding and marketing, coupled with the team’s success on the ice, enabled the Penguins to lead all U.S.-based NHL and NBA teams in local television ratings during the 2011-12 season. Keeping with that trend, the Penguins led all U.S.-based NHL teams in website traffic and Twitter followers while continually setting new standards for merchandise sales.

Youth hockey participation also is on the rise — in part because of Morehouse’s support for efforts such as Sidney Crosby’s Little Penguins Learn to Play program, which distributes free head-to-toe hockey equipment, including skates, to 1,000 kids aged 5-7 each year.

The Penguins have sold out every game for five-plus seasons, a streak that had reached 254 games before the start of the 2012-13 season. They also have sold out all suites for four-plus seasons and actually increased capacity at CONSOL Energy Center by 300 seats (to 18,387) after the arena’s inaugural season in 2010-11.

Morehouse himself was named 2011 CEO Communicator of the Year by the Pittsburgh Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America.

The Pittsburgh native joined the Penguins in 2004 as Senior Consultant on the new arena project following a career in national politics that included stints at the White House, Pentagon and on Capitol Hill as well as key roles in two Presidential campaigns.

Morehouse attended the Community College of Allegheny County and Duquesne University and received a master’s degree in Public Administration from Harvard University’s John F. Kennedy School of Government.

He and his wife, Vanessa, have four children and live in Sewickley Heights.

RAY SHERO

EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT & GENERAL MANAGER

Ray Shero has established himself as one of the premiere general managers in the National Hockey League.

Shero, 50, who is in his seventh season as Pittsburgh’s GM, has transformed a franchise that missed the playoffs from 2002-06 into a perennial championship contender, including two Stanley Cup Final appearances and a Cup title in 2009.

Shero, who was named general manager of the Penguins in May, 2006, arrived in Pittsburgh with a firm, forward-thinking managerial style that incorporates cutting-edge methods of technology, player relations, prospect development and salary cap management.

Shero’s efforts have secured the Penguins’ long-term stability and competitiveness with his masterful maneuvering of the salary cap — the Penguins ranked No. 3 out of 122 pro sports franchises in spending efficiency according to Bloomberg Business Week — and multi-year signings of the team’s core players: Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, Marc-Andre Fleury, Brooks Orpik, Kris Letang, and James Neal.

Shero’s riskiest and boldest move paid off with hockey’s highest prize.

With the Penguins needing a jolt of life late in the 2008-09 season, he promoted Wilkes-Barre/Scranton head coach Dan Bylsma to Pittsburgh.

Bylsma led a turnaround that resulted in a championship in ’09. Bylsma also won the Jack Adams Award as the NHL’s Most Outstanding Coach in ’11.

Shero cut his administrative teeth during 14 seasons as an assistant general manager with the Nashville Predators (1998-06) and Ottawa Senators (1993-98).

Shero, a native of St. Paul, Minn., was raised in a hockey family filled with tradition. His father, Fred Shero, played for the NY Rangers (1947-50) and coached the Philadelphia Flyers for seven seasons. Fred won back-to-back Stanley Cups as head coach of the Flyers in 1974 and ’75 and also served as general manager of the Rangers for three years (1978-80), leading the club to the Stanley Cup Final in 1979. The Sheros are one of the few father-son tandems to have their names on the Cup. Shero played college hockey at St. Lawrence University in Canton, N.Y. He twice led the team in scoring and was named team captain on two occasions. He graduated in 1984 as one of the top-10 scorers in school history.

Shero, who was drafted by the Los Angeles Kings in the 1982 NHL Draft, spent seven years as a player agent before making the transition to the front office.

Shero is actively involved with USA Hockey and is a member of the USA Hockey National Team Advisory Group.

Ray and his wife, Karen, and their two sons reside in Upper St. Clair.

JASON BOTTERILL ASSISTANT GENERAL MANAGER

Jason Botterill is in his fourth full season as assistant general manager after being promoted to his current position in May, 2009, by GM Ray Shero.

As assistant GM, Botterill works closely with Shero on all hockey-related matters, including scouting, player development and contract negotiations. He also manages hockey operations and acts as GM for the club’s top minor-league affiliate, Wilkes-Barre/Scranton of the American Hockey League.

Prior to his promotion, Botterill, 36, worked two seasons as director of hockey administration with the Penguins; his responsibilities included salary cap management, professional and amateur scouting and overseeing prospect development.

Botterill’s avant-garde approach and understanding of the salary cap has been a major asset for the Penguins. Before joining the Pittsburgh organization, he worked with NHL Central Registry and also scouted for the Dallas Stars.

Botterill, a native of Edmonton who grew up in Winnipeg, was a firstround draft pick (20th overall) by Dallas in the 1994 NHL Draft and played 88 NHL games over six seasons with Dallas, Atlanta, Calgary and Buffalo.

He also played 393 career games in the AHL and IHL, recording 127 goals and 257 points.

RULES OF THE GAME PRESENTED BY

BOARDING

BOARDING To check or push a defenseless opponent in such a manner that causes the opponent to hit or impact into the boards dangerously or violently.

T:8.5”

B:8.75”

S:8.5”

-

The player applying the check needs to ensure his opponent is not in a defenseless position and if so, must avoid contact.

-

The player with the puck needs to avoid placing himself in a dangerous and defenseless position.

-

Any unnecessary contact with a player playing the puck on an obvious icing or off-sides play that does not impact boards should be treated as charging.

DELAY OF GAME A player may be penalized when, in the opinion of the Referee, is delaying the game in any matter. (Normally six conditions) 1.) Player or goaltender intentionally shoots or throws the puck out

of the playing area.

2.) A defensive player or goaltender in the defensive zone shoots the

puck directly (without being deflected) over the glass.

3.) A player or goaltender intentionally knocks the net’s goalpost off

its moorings, which stops the play.

4.) The goaltender plays the puck out of the trapezoid behind the net.

5.) The goaltender freezes the puck rather than passing it to a team-

mate when no player on the opposing team is within sufficient distance to apply offensive pressure.

6.) Any skater other than the goaltender who uses their hands to

make the puck unplayable.

- A player who is behind an opponent, who does not have the puck, may not use his stick, body or free hand in order to restrain his opponent.

POSSESSION OF THE PUCK: The last player to touch the puck, other than the goaltenders, will be considered the player in possession.

RESTRAIN: The actions of a player or goaltender who does not have body position, but instead uses illegal means to impede an opponent who is not in possession of the puck.

PICK: The action of a player or goaltender who checks an opponent who is not in possession of the puck and is unaware of the impending check/hit.

FREE HAND: When a free hand is used to hold, pull, tug, grab or physically restrain an opponent from moving freely, this must be penalized as holding.

STICK: A player who does not have body position on his opponent, who used his stick to impede or prevent his opponent from moving freely on the ice shall be assessed a hooking penalty.

OFF-SIDES Players of the attacking team must not precede the puck into the attacking zone. (Two determining factors) 1.) One of a player’s skates is not in contact with or behind the blue

line of the attacking zone before the puck enters that zone.

2.) The puck must completely cross the edge of the blue line nearest

the attacking zone to be considered inside the attacking zone.

The act of using the stick in a manner that enables a player to restrain an opponent.

2013 PLAYOFF FORMAT The National Hockey League’s 30 clubs are aligned into two conferences, each consisting of three divisions (Eastern Conference: Atlantic, Northeast, Southeast; Western Conference: Central, Northwest, Pacific). The number of teams qualifying for the 2013 Stanley Cup Playoffs remains at 16.

First-round playoff berths will be awarded to the first-place team in each division, as well as to the next five best teams (based on regular-season point totals in each conference). The three division winners in each conference will be seeded first through third (in order of points) and the next five best teams (in order of points) will be seeded fourth through eighth. In each conference, the team seeded #1 will play the team seeded #8; #2 vs. #7; #3 vs. #6 and #4 vs. #5 in the Conference Quarterfinal round. Home-ice in the Conference Quarterfinals is granted to those teams seeded first through fourth in each conference.

In the Conference Semifinals and Conference Finals, teams will be reseeded according to the same criteria as the Conference Quarterfinals (division leaders will be seeded first and granted home-ice advantage while the remaining teams will be seeded in order of regular-season points).

Home-ice advantage in the Stanley Cup Final will be determined by points. All series remain best-of-seven.

TIE-BREAKING PROCEDURE: In the event two or more clubs are tied in points at the conclusion of the regular season, the standing of the clubs in each conference will be determined in the following order: 1. The greater number of games won in regulation and overtime.

2. The greater number of points earned in games between the tied clubs. If two clubs are tied, and have not played an equal number of home games against each other, points earned in the first game played in the city that had the extra game shall not be included. If more than two clubs are tied, the higher percentage of available points earned in games among those clubs (and not including any odd games) shall be used to determine the standing.

3. The greater differential between goals for and against for the entire regular season.

CONFERENCE QUARTERFINALS (SERIES A – H) The six regular-season division champions will be ranked in the first three positions in their respective conferences, the clubs with the greatest number of points being ranked first in their respective conferences. The remaining five playoff clubs in each conference will be ranked based on regular-season points. Following are the matchups based on the rankings.

CONFERENCE SEMIFINALS (SERIES I – L) If one division winner is eliminated in the Conference Quarterfinals: The remaining division winners would be seeded first and second, followed by the two remaining clubs in order of regular-season points. The #1 seed would face the club with the fewest regular-season points, while the other two clubs would meet.

If two division winners are eliminated in the Conference Quarterfinals: The remaining division winner would be seeded first, followed by the three remaining clubs in order of regular-season points. The #1 seed would face the club with the fewest regular-season points, while the other two clubs would meet.

If all three division winners are eliminated in the Conference Quarterfinals: The remaining clubs would be ranked in order of regular-season points.

The remaining team with the most regular-season points would be seeded first, followed by the three remaining teams. The #1 seed would face the #4 seed, while the #2 and #3 seeds would meet.

If a division winner meets a non-division winner that compiled more regular season points: The division winner would receive home-ice advantage.

CONFERENCE FINALS (SERIES M AND N) The same criteria used in the selection of order for the Conference Quarterfinals (Advancing division winners, followed by remaining clubs based on regular-season points) again will be in effect.

If a division winner meets a non-division winner that compiled more regular-season points: The division winner would receive home-ice advantage.

If Conference Semifinal series end early: Start dates for the Conference Finals may be moved up depending on a number of factors, including building availability and travel schedules.

STANLEY CUP FINAL (SERIES O) The Eastern Conference and Western Conference champions will meet in the Stanley Cup Final series. Home-ice will be determined by the greater number of regular-season points, subject to the tiebreaking procedures outlined previously. Games will be played on a 2-2-1-1-1 basis.

PENGUINS HISTORY AT A GLANCE

OCTOBER 11, 1967 FIRST GAME IN FRANCHISE HISTORY The Penguins played their first game as an NHL franchise. The Penguins fell 2-1 to the Montreal Canadiens in front of 9,307 fans at the Civic Arena.

JUNE 9, 1984 MARIO IS DRAFTED NHL hockey may have been born in Pittsburgh on October 11, 1967, but it came alive June 9, 1984 when Eddie Johnson stepped to the podium and selected Mario Lemieux with the first overall pick of the1984 NHL Entry Draft, the first time the Penguins had ever held the No. 1-overall selection.

MAY 25, 1991 STANLEY CUP CLINCHER With an 8-0 victory over the Minnesota North Stars, the Penguins become Stanley Cup champions for the first time in their 24-year history.

JUNE 1, 1992 STANLEY CUP CLINCHER Penguins defeat the Chicago Blackhawks in four games to win back-to-back Stanley Cup championships.

continued from page 86

JUNE 24, 1999 GREATEST SAVE In the greatest save of Penguins history, Lemieux and a team of investors rescued the ailing franchise from bankruptcy.

APRIL 17, 2006 YOUNGEST TO 100

DECEMBER 27, 2000 THE COMEBACK

Sidney Crosby became the youngest player in NHL history at 18 years, 253 days to record 100 points in a season on April 17, 2006.

Crosby collected three assists against the New York Islanders to reach the century mark in front of a hometown crowd of 17,084 fans.

Making perhaps the greatest comeback in sports history, Mario Lemieux emerged from retirement to rejoin the Penguins. In true Mario fashion, Lemieux posted an assist on his first shift of the game en route to a three-point night in a 5-0 defeat of the Toronto Maple Leafs at Mellon Arena.

OCTOBER 18, 2006 MALKIN’S DEBUT Evgeni Malkin made his NHL debut against the New Jersey Devils.

Malkin did not disappoint, beating the Devils Martin Brodeur to begin a scoring tear that saw him tie a modern-day NHL record for rookies by lighting the lamp in each of his first six games.

JANUARY 1, 2008 WINTER CLASSIC Sidney Crosby turned the page on a storybook ending with his dramatic shootout game-winner in front of 71,217 fans during the inaugural NHL Winter Classic at Ralph Wilson Stadium.

AFTER THE GAME

SUPER DUPER By: Wes Crosby

Scoring, grit, leadership and consistency.

Pascal Dupuis owns all four of those characteristics and, finally, it seems like those outside the Penguins’ locker room are beginning to realize that.

After another lights-out regular season — 38 points (20G-18A) in 48 games — and a torrid start to the postseason, Dupuis has proven that he is a bona fide star on one of the NHL’s most talent laden teams.

“He’s a guy we have gotten a lot of questions about in the last couple of months,” Bylsma said, “[about] him being under the radar, but I’m not sure he is. He’s been one of the best even-strength goal scorers in the league for quite some time now and his numbers stack up there with some of the best names that we all talk about being great players.”

Dupuis’ skill was evident during the Penguins’ first-round series against the New York Islanders, when he scored five goals through six games, including one in Pittsburgh’s series-clinching 4-3 overtime victory in Game Six. “I think he’s always had the speed and strength,” captain Sidney Crosby said, “but he’s going to a lot of tough areas and he’s getting opportunities to put it in the back of the net. So, I think his scoring touch is probably something that’s developed a little more over the last couple of years and with his speed, he’s going to get into those situations and those positions.”

SCORING, GRIT, LEADERSHIP AND CONSISTENCY. PASCAL DUPUIS OWNS ALL FOUR OF THOSE CHARACTERISTICS continued on page 113

continued from page 111

Dupuis has enjoyed the most productive years of his career during the past two seasons, averaging 0.79 points per game this season and 0.71 the year prior. He attributes much of his success to playing alongside Crosby, but while the captain was sidelined for the final 12 games of the regular season, Dupuis continued to produce at a rapid pace — posting 12 points (3G-9A) during that period.

Despite the rise in his point total over the last two seasons, Dupuis said he hasn’t changed his game from when he came to Pittsburgh at the 2008 NHL trade deadline.

“My role hasn’t really changed, that’s the thing,” Dupuis said. “Yes, they’re going in right now and yes, point-wise, I’m on the board, but my role hasn’t changed. I’m still killing penalties, I’m still playing the right side, or the left side, with Sidney Crosby and it hasn’t changed in the last three years.

“So, it’s really more of the same since I’ve been here. We need to find wingers for ‘Sid,’ but for now, I’m glad that guy’s me.”

And the feeling is mutual.

“He’s 35 and in the best shape of his life,” Crosby said. “He put in a lot of time and, during the lockout, there were about 10 of us together and he was the one [who was] kind of pushing everyone.”

Dupuis’ work ethic is put on display before and during each game, resulting in him becoming one of the Penguins’ best twoway players. His point-production is invaluable to Pittsburgh, but his ability to play well on both ends, including on the penalty kill, is what makes Dupuis such an asset. continued on page 114

continued from page 113

In the Penguins’ 4-1 victory over the Ottawa Senators in Game One of the Eastern Conference Semifinals on May 14 at CONSOL Energy Center, Dupuis’ two-way ability was put on display for the hockey world to see as he netted a shorthanded goal with about seven minutes remaining that sealed the game for Pittsburgh.

“He obviously has put up a lot of points,” Douglas Murray, who assisted on that shorthanded goal, said. “He’s done so without lacking anything defensively. He is very sound defensively. He obviously has great speed and a great stick and he reads the play well and he uses that on the defensive side too, which is huge for us, especially on the penalty kill.”

The rest of Pittsburgh’s blueliners also recognize Dupuis’ defensive acumen.

“He honed his skills killing penalties and being that energy guy and blocking shots and getting pucks in deep,” Paul Martin said. “He’s always had that penalty kill mentality and has been able to take care of his own end defensively.”

After six seasons in Pittsburgh, Dupuis is finally getting the universal respect he deserves outside of the Penguins’ dressing room. But as for those inside that room, they’ve never doubted the level of Dupuis’ play.

“He’s been a very, very consistent performer,” Murray said. “Night in and night out, he’s playing hard and if he’s not putting up points, he’s still a very effective player for the team. Whether it’s getting a hit on the forecheck or holding onto the puck or making great defensive plays.

“As long as I’ve been here, I would not try to replace him, that’s for sure.”

PITTSBURGH PENGUINS FOUNDATION

PROJECT POWER PLAY Project Power Play represents a group of partners; The Pittsburgh Penguins Foundation, Highmark, the City of Pittsburgh and Allegheny County, who are focused on building 12 multi-sport dek hockey rinks to encourage physical activity and provide accessibility to hockey facilities for youth.

The first two rinks in the City of Pittsburgh are located at Banksville Park on Crane Avenue and at Lewis Park in Hazelwood adjacent to the YMCA, both opened at the end of 2012.

Over the next three years, 10 more rinks will be constructed as part of the $2.1 million project.

Project Power Play funding comes from Highmark which is committing $1.5 million and the Pittsburgh Penguins Foundation which is providing $600,000. Additional contributions come from the City of Pittsburgh, Allegheny County and the local municipalities, which are providing land for the rinks, as well as maintenance, lighting and other support.

Dave Soltesz, president of the Pittsburgh Penguins Foundation says, “The Foundation’s mission includes creating opportunities for youth that stress physical fitness, teamwork and sportsmanship. The dek hockey rinks and related programs will serve youth in the region, fulfill the Foundation’s mission to encourage youth fitness, and help to make hockey a more accessible sport. These are the best dek hockey rinks anywhere,” Soltesz says. “You have to see it to believe it.”

The facilities, 155’ x 75’, are multi-sport courts and each includes a premier dasherboard system like those used in the NHL, players’ benches, penalty box, scorer’s table, goals at each end, and start-up dek hockey equipment. Each facility will have nine access gates, including handicap access via the service gate. Black vinyl fences enclose each facility.

Soltesz says, “We are proud of our sport. We are proud of our region, and we are proud to put these types of facilities in the communities.”

PensFIT

In a first-of-its-kind program, the Pittsburgh Penguins Foundation is providing free floor hockey equipment to more than 250 elementary and middle schools in Allegheny County. The program, known as PensFIT, got its start on Friday, November 9 when Penguins alum Phil Bourque delivered the first set of equipment to Neil Armstrong Middle School in Bethel Park.

The equipment for each school retails at more than $1,000 and includes goals, sticks, stick bags, hockey balls, goalie equipment and a storage bag. In addition to providing student workbooks and instructional manuals, the Pittsburgh Penguins Foundation will offer a seminar at CONSOL Energy Center for the schools’ physical education teachers – hosted by the Penguins’ coaching staff and team alumni.

PensFIT is designed as a three-year initiative to assist elementary schools in providing new opportunities for physical education classes.

The long-term goal is to supply free equipment to 600 elementary and middle schools in 10 counties. Schools from surrounding counties will be added during the second year of the program.

The Pittsburgh Penguins Foundation has teamed up with corporate partner FedEx Ground on delivery of the equipment.

FedEx Ground will provide shipping to the schools free of charge.

MIKE LANGE

PENGUINS RADIO NETWORK PLAY-BY-PLAY ANNOUNCER

One of the most unique broadcasters in professional sports, Mike Lange is calling games in his 36th season with the Penguins, handling radio play-by-play on the club’s flagship station, 105.9 FM The X and the Penguins Radio Network.

Known for his creative and colorful style, including trademark phrases such as “Buy Sam A Drink And Get His Dog One, Too,” Lange was awarded the Foster Hewitt award by the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2001.

Lange’s relationship with the Penguins began in 1974-75, when he broke into the NHL as a radio play-by-play man. He left for one season, but returned in 1976-77 and has been a fixture on the Penguins’ scene ever since.

Lange did radio exclusively until 1979, when games were simulcast on radio and TV. He served as the television voice of the Penguins through 2005-06, before returning to the radio booth in 2006-07.

A native of Sacramento, California, Lange earned a degree in broadcasting from Sacramento State University before starting his career as the voice of the Phoenix Roadrunners (WHL) in 1970. He also served as the play-by-play voice of the San Diego Gulls (WHL) in 1973-74 before joining the Penguins. In addition to his tenure with the Penguins, Lange handled play-by-play duties for the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1986-87. A well-known member of the Pittsburgh community, Lange makes numerous personal appearances throughout the year and is actively involved in charity work.

PHIL BOURQUE

PENGUINS RADIO NETWORK COLOR ANALYST

Two-time Stanley Cup Champion Phil Bourque is in his eighth season on the Penguins broadcast team, serving as color commentator alongside Mike Lange.

A gritty winger/defenseman, Bourque was signed by Pittsburgh as a free agent in 1982, and went on to record 164 points (75G-89A) in 344 regular-season games with the Penguins between 1983 and 1992.

For his career he totaled 199 points (88G-111A) in 477 games with the Penguins, New York Rangers and Ottawa.

Since retiring from professional hockey in 2000, Bourque has co-hosted Penguins pre- and post-game shows on the Penguins Radio Network and worked as a contributor for WPXI-TV’s coverage of Penguins hockey.

The Pittsburgh Penguins Elite program presented by Dick’s Sporting Goods will feature 13 teams playing at the AAA level — eight boys teams and five girls teams.

“Part of our overall vision of supporting local youth hockey has been to create an elite Pittsburgh Penguins youth program that would attract top players in different age groups, offering an excellent environment to develop skills, teach teamwork and compete against top teams from other areas,” said David Morehouse, CEO and President of the Pittsburgh Penguins. “The Pittsburgh Amateur Hockey League (PAHL) and Pennsylvania Interscholastic Hockey League (PIHL) do such a great job of growing the game here, and there are a number of good amateur programs. But we thought it made sense to have a AAA program directly affiliated with the Pittsburgh Penguins.

LITTLE PENGUINS LEARN TO PLAY HOCKEY

Sidney Crosby and his family wanted to help parents introduce their children to the game of hockey — and to do it without having to incur a prohibitive up-front cost.

The result is the Little Penguins Learn to Play Hockey program.

This generous donation and tremendous, one-of-a-kind opportunity allows children, aged 4-8, to receive free head-to-toe hockey equipment and 10 sessions of on-ice instruction.

The 2012-13 season will be the fifth consecutive year for the Little Penguins program, which continues to grow. Last season twenty-three rinks hosted the program, which includes four girls-only locations.

Since the program began during the 2008-2009 season more than 3,200 children have been introduced to hockey through this program.

This season, 1,000 participants aged 4-8 will receive free gear and learn the game. Thanks to the combined efforts of Sidney Crosby, the Pittsburgh Penguins, Penguins Foundation, Reebok, and Dick’s Sporting Goods, all participants receive full sets of Reebok SC87 equipment, including skates, stick, helmet, gloves, pants, shoulder pads, shin pads, elbow pads, and an equipment bag, as well as an official Little Penguins jersey and helmet stickers.

After four highly successful seasons, the program sells out quickly.

During the pre-registration period, parents may view information regarding participating rinks, starting dates, number of sessions, and times of instructional sessions, which are listed on the Penguins’ website. For participant convenience, registration will occur online at pittsburghpenguins.com.

“We were both excited and amazed by the reaction to the Little Penguins program in previous seasons, and we’re happy to be able to

offer the program again for another year,” Crosby said. “The goal is to continue to create opportunities for more kids in the Pittsburgh area to take up hockey. With the Little Penguins program, they can receive head-to-toe hockey equipment and learn the game in a fun and organized way.”

“It’s a tribute to Sid and his family that they want to reach out and create this incredible opportunity for children in the Pittsburgh area,” said Penguins CEO and President David Morehouse. “One of their goals was to help parents by providing free head-to-toe hockey equipment to properly equip their children. The Penguins are honored to join Reebok and Dick’s Sporting Goods in supporting Sid and this great program.”

BEHIND THE BENCH WITH COACH DAN TIPS FOR YOUTH HOCKEY PLAYERS

SKATE, SKATE, SKATE No matter what level you are playing, skating is everything when it comes to hockey. However, skating isn’t just about being able to move backwards or forwards. Change of direction is critical when your team is on the transition from defense to offense, or vice versa.

That makes being able stop, turn or pivot on a dime and quickly accelerate out of a start position as much a key to being a good skater as straight-ahead speed.

Work hard to improve your skating when you can!

THE IMPORTANCE OF PASSING Pay attention to your passing. Nothing moves the puck up ice quicker than a tape-to-tape pass.

A good passing team is able to maintain possession of the puck for long stretches, putting itself in position to generate more offense.

What separates the great passers from the good ones is not only are they able to deliver the puck to a teammate when he or she is wide open, but they are able to use the boards and make area passes to teammates in traffic. “Practice perfect passing.”

GET TO THE NET Everybody has probably heard the saying ‘good things happen when you go to the net.’

There is a good reason for that — everything happens there. When you have a chance to shoot, get the puck on net. You also have to make sure that you physically go to the net so that way you are there for tips, rebounds and screens — all plays that lead directly to goals.

WORK HARD AND HAVE FUN We all want to be the best players we can be and help our team win each time we step on the ice. The easiest way to achieve this — WORK HARD EVERY TIME you step on the ice because work ethic is a huge key to being a successful hockey player.

Just as important as working hard is ENJOYING THE GAME. Hockey is just that — a game — which means it is something we do to entertain ourselves. When you are having fun on the ice, chances are good that you are playing your best.

2012.13

SEASON RECAP Here is a look back at your 2012-13 Atlantic Division Champion Pittsburgh Penguins:

After suffering a 4-1 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes on Feb. 28, the Penguins would not drop another decision for 32 days.

The Penguins began one of the most impressive winning streaks in NHL history with a nerve-wracking 7-6 overtime win over the Montreal Canadiens. They went on to reel off 15 straight victories, outscoring opponents 53-26, with a perfect 15-0 March record. The streak fell just two wins shy of matching the 1992-93 Penguins NHL record 17-game winning streak, but still tied the 1981-82 Islanders for second-best in league history.

“I think we came to a clear understanding,” goalie Tomas Vokoun, “no matter how good of a team we are, if we’re not going to commit to playing the right way, we’ll still win and we’ll still make the playoffs and we’ll be talked about as a good team, but I don’t think we have as good of a chance to be a great team or win in the playoffs.”

Vokoun and Marc-Andre Fleury, along with Pittsburgh’s blueliners, were the main factor in the streak staying alive as long as it did. In the streak’s last 11 games, the Penguins never surrendered more than two goals and set a franchise record by shutting out three straight opponents in the middle of a season-long five game home stretch.

“We’ve definitely improved our defensive zone play over the last month here,” forward Brandon Sutter said two days after the Penguins continued on page 191

shutout the Islanders 2-0 on March 30. “For ‘Flower’ and ‘Voky’ to be playing the way they are has been awesome.”

TRADE DEADLINE ACQUISITIONS Penguins general manager Ray Shero showcased his trade wizardry leading up to the NHL’s annual trade deadline this season, bringing in four key pieces, headlined by future Hall of Famer Jarome Iginla.

Shero started remaking his roster a few days before the deadline, acquiring Dallas Stars captain Brenden Morrow and San Jose defenseman Douglas Murray.

Shero shocked the hockey world when he came to an agreement with Calgary Flames general manager Jay Feaster, sending Iginla to Pittsburgh in exchange for prospects Kenny Agostino, Ben Hanowski and a 2013 first-round pick.

The former Calgary captain and hockey icon debuted in the Penguins’ 2-0 win over the New York Islanders on March 30 and said it felt similar to his first career game.

“You’re literally all the way back to when you were 18,” Iginla said, “and you’re trying to stay calm. It feels great to come here and just be part of a win.

Just keep rolling.”

But Shero still was not finished staking his claim as the clear trade deadline winner, as he made one final deal, acquiring center Jussi Jokinen from Carolina for a conditional sixth- or seventh-round pick in the 2013 draft. continued on page 193

The deals made the Penguins the odds-on favorite to hoist the Stanley Cup, but Shero was not close to being satisfied.

“The team on paper doesn’t matter too much,” Shero said. “We have to do it on the ice.”

Each piece contributed to making the Penguins a complete team by the end of the season. Iginla provided veteran grit and even more offensive firepower, Morrow brought a strong net-front presence and leadership, Murray served as a bruising, shutdown defenseman and Jokinen added a skilled, versatile forward that excelled in faceoffs.

SEASON RECAP The Penguins had a remarkable regular season, locking up the Eastern Conference’s top seed with a 3-2 victory over the Boston Bruins on April 20 and earning their first Atlantic Division title since the 2007-08 season.

The Pens finished the season with 72 points, on pace for 123 points across a full-82 game schedule, which would have been the highest total in franchise history.

After a rocky 3-3 start, Pittsburgh quickly became a force to be reckoned with in the early part of this shortened season. They made a statement within the division by trouncing the New Jersey Devils 5-1 at home on Feb. 2, two days after shutting out the New York Rangers 3-0 in Madison Square Garden.

The Penguins battled the Devils at the top of the division through much of the first two months before New Jersey slipped down the standings, while Sidney Crosby returned to form as the best hockey continued on page 194

player in the world. Crosby scored 31 (9G-22A) of his 56 points this season in those two months.

Crosby led the NHL’s scoring race for much of the season, holding a 10-point cushion over Tampa Bay’s Steven Stamkos on March 30, when Crosby suffered a broken jaw when a puck struck his face in his first shift of a matchup with the New York Islanders.

Crosby’s scoring pace was so daunting that he wasn’t taken over until nearly a month later, when Tampa Bay’s Martin St. Louis surpassed Crosby with a hat trick on April 24.

The Pens’ captain missed the final 12 games of the regular season, but his NHL-best 1.56 points-per-game pace allowed him to finish tied (tied) for third in the race for the Art Ross Trophy.

But Crosby wasn’t the only marquee Penguin name that missed a substantial amount of time due to injury. Reigning Hart Trophy winner Evgeni Malkin battled injuries throughout the season, missing 17 games, while James Neal, Paul Martin, Brooks Orpik and Kris Letang were all sidelined at various points.

The Penguins’ injury list made what they accomplished all the more impressive, as the team was continuously forced to rearrange its lines without some of the best players in the NHL at its disposal. They seemed to adapt flawlessly in each situation, while adding noteworthy pieces Jarome Iginla, Brenden Morrow, Douglas Murray and Jussi Jokinen undoubtedly helped to not only steady the ship, but to keep it sailing at full mast.

Pittsburgh maintained a potent offense, the league’s best with a 3.38 goals per game average, which led the team to a 13-8 record through February, before experiencing a flawless March.

The Penguins finished March a perfect 15-0, while outscoring their opponents 53-26. While the offense was dominant during the month, and through the entire season for that matter — scoring at least three goals in 10 of the 15 games — the defense gave the team a noticeable boost, especially as March came to a close.

The Pens allowed two or fewer goals in 11 straight games to end March, including four shutouts (three consecutive to conclude the month).

Their 15-game winning streak was one that will be etched in the annals of Pittsburgh sports history, alongside the 1992-93 Penguins record 17-game winning streak.

The remarkable season was capped off in the finale when injured players Neal and Martin returned to the lineup.

Neal scored three goals (adding an assist for a four-point night) for his third career hat trick in an 8-3 drubbing of the Carolina Hurricanes. It was the perfect was to end a memorable season.

PENS PROFILE

BROOKS ORPIK By: Mark Madden

On a hockey rink, the sound usually associated with Brooks Orpik is “thud.” The “thud” of knocking a foe sprawling. The “thud” of blocking a shot.

But on May 11, Orpik initiated a gun fight in a bell factory.

Clang, clang, then silence…save the joyous reaction of 20 men in Penguins jerseys.

Orpik’s first Stanley Cup playoff goal ended the Penguins’ first-round series in overtime of Game Six, ricocheting off both posts before

200

settling into the net after 7:49 of extra play. It took Orpik 78 post-season games, but it was worth the wait. Penguins 4, New York Islanders 3.

“I don’t know if I’m not supposed to do that,” Orpik said. “It’s not looked for, maybe.

“Any time you contribute in ways you’re not expected to, you always feel a little bit better about yourself. In the playoffs, that’s where you need guys stepping up.”

Orpik took a pass from Tyler Kennedy and blasted the puck through a crowd. Orpik’s shot beat Islanders’ goalie Evgeni Nabokov on his stick side.

“T.K. put it on a tee for me,” Orpik said. “I had a little bit of net on the short side. I didn’t even know it went in. I thought it had a chance, but I think it hit both posts. But then I looked at T.K.’s and [Evgeni Malkin’s] reactions, and I knew it was in.”

The Penguins’ defense produced six goals against the Islanders: Two each by Douglas Murray and Kris Letang, once each from Orpik and Paul Martin.

“A lot depends on who we’re playing. You see a lot of teams where all five guys collapse down low,” Orpik said. “You see a lot more point shots. Some teams cover the points a little more.

“Scoring by the D isn’t as high as it used to be, especially five-on-five.

Anytime you find a way to get it in the back of the net, it’s definitely a good feeling.”

Orpik missed the first three games vs. the Islanders. That was not a good feeling.

“I’d never missed a playoff game before,” said Orpik, 32. “That was frustrating. I tried my best to get back in there, but it wasn’t really possible.”

Oprik gave the Islanders full credit for an excellent effort.

“They definitely played well,” Orpik said. “I know we didn’t play our best hockey in a handful of games. It wasn’t very consistent with the way we play.

“A lot of times, you can dissect what you’re doing. A lot of times, there’s a reason why you’re not playing your best. And obviously, [the Islanders] had a good game plan against us. Their transition game was the best we saw all year, and their speed up front gave us some problems.

“There really aren’t any easy series, especially since the parity created by the salary cap. Los Angeles was an eight seed last year. It worked out well for them.”

The Penguins were first-round losers in each of the last two seasons, but Orpik doesn’t think that flustered them vs. the Islanders. continued on page 203

“It definitely wasn’t something we talked about at all,” said the 6-foot-2, 219-pounder. “It’s a different group this year. We got some new guys at the [trade] deadline. We got some younger guys, too. So half the team wasn’t here the last couple years when we lost in the first round.

“The group we have now is 1-0 in playoff series. That’s the best way to look at it.”

The Penguins were on their way to being 2-0 in playoff series this spring after taking a two games-to-one lead in their second-round clash with Ottawa. “[Goalie Craig] Anderson is the backbone there,” Orpik said before the series. “With [Erik] Karlsson and [Sergei] Gonchar on the back end, they have some good puck-movers, and a good combination of grit and skill up front. But probably not the amount and quality of speed the Islanders threw at us.”

The Penguins turned to Tomas Vokoun in goal after splitting the first four games with the Islanders. Vokoun quickly won four straight playoff decisions.

“He played well in Game Five [against the Islanders], and he was right there in Game Six,” Orpik said. “He made some huge saves in the third period to keep it a one-goal game and give us a chance to win. He’s been a real calming influence.”

Orpik had eight assists in 46 regularseason games. His last goal prior to his series-winner on Long Island came Nov. 21, 2011 — also against the Islanders.

Orpik’s OT goal not only won the series, but allowed him to save a little face.

“Crankshaft [Murray] said I was getting jealous of all his goal-scoring,” Orpik said.

TWITTER Q & A

CHRIS KUNITZ #AskKunitz @geno71geno @penguins What gets you pumped up before a game? #AskKunitz “Just try and get into your routine. I think the music probably has a little bit of a factor but no song, it changes one game to the next. It’s different in every building, so it’s more of the repetition of how you get ready for the game.” @87to71 What is your favorite book? #AskKunitz “I like a the Malcolm Gladwell books, Tipping Point, Blank, books like that.” @KostaGionis @penguins #AskKunitz Biggest goal of his career? “I don’t know. I haven’t had any overtime winners or anything like that. I had one in World Championships, in a goal medal game but ended up losing.

I scored one that maybe turned the momentum for us for a little bit, but ended up not working out for us in the end so it wasn’t that big.” @arrook86 @penguins #AskKunitz What is your favorite thing to do to kill time on the road game trips? “Facetime with the family. Catching up with the kids. Other than that, just hanging out with teammates, going out for dinner, things like that. It’s a lot of fun to get to know some of the new guys but still make fun of each other when we’re out on the road.” @equestrian66 #AskKunitz What is your favorite part of being a father? “All of it. Watching my daughter learn new words or taking my son out to skate and anything that comes along with being a parent.” @FCPaulye @penguins Chris, where does the name Kunitz come from? It’s been great watching you the last three seasons, good luck #AskKunitz “I would say I think it’s Austrian. That’s where my grandmother still has some relatives, but we have a little bit of everything in us.” @HattonShauna #AskKunitz — Do you have any tips for young players wanting to get better? (ex. Diets, workout routines ect..)

“Just enjoy what you do. If it’s fun then it makes it a lot easier to go to the rink everyday. You’re obviously going to have to put in the work and the time to become a better player. But if it’s fun and you enjoy it, it’s going to be a lot easier.”

POWER PLAY PROWESS By: Mike Prisuta

They had converted at a 33.3-percent success rate with the manadvantage in Round One but nonetheless went in a different direction at the outset of Round Two. That’s how the Penguins roll on the power play these days.

Against the New York Islanders it had been Kris Letang and Jarome Iginla positioned at the blueline, and Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin and Chris Kunitz deployed up front on the No. 1 power-play unit.

But when the Penguins were handed a man-advantage a mere 1:12 into their Eastern Conference semifinal series with the Ottawa Senators, Malkin and Letang comprised the back end and Crosby, Kunitz and James Neal attacked the net from closer range with the No. 1 group.

It wasn’t because of a hunch or a gutfeel on the part of head coach Dan Bylsma.

And it wasn’t because assistant coach and powerplay guru Todd Reirden had uncovered video evidence that suggested such a change might be beneficial to the Penguins.

No, this change was more circumstantial than schematic.

“We started it with No. 18 [Neal] out there and Jarome off just because he had been on the ice at the end of his shift and was tired,” Bylsma allowed.

A power-play goal ensued, but it wasn’t scored until Paul Martin had come on as a point man and Brenden Morrow had taken to providing the net-front presence.

That’s how potentially deep, versatile and volatile the Penguins’ power play has become. continued on page 218

And that part is anything but circumstantial.

“We practice our power play with a couple different looks depending on the situation in the game,” Bylsma explained. “We’ve used two defensemen with No. 7 [Martin] and No. 58 [Letang) and had success with that. Against the Islanders Jarome’s been on the point or the off-side with the one-timer. Earlier this year we had No. 58 with No. 71 [Malkin], No. 87 [Crosby], No. 18 and No. 14 [Kunitz].

“We’ve practiced all three of those looks. We’re ready and willing to do all those looks. All those have been good and were ready to go to any one of those.”

The going was so good through the first eight games this postseason that the Penguins found themselves with the No. 1 power play in the playoffs at 32.3 percent (10-for-31), a figure that did not include a goal scored in Game Two by Morrow a mere eight seconds after a powerplay had expired.

It was an attentiongetting number, but not one the Penguins were focusing upon from game to game.

“We’re not gonna look at the big picture,” Iginla insisted. “Every time you go out there you want to be a positive [influence] and have some momentum and ultimately score.

“But we go on thinking that we’re going to try to get some momentum, get some shots, run some plays, this and that, and let [the overall success rate] take care of itself.”

Iginla is in his 16th NHL season but he’s never seen a power-play unit quite like the one he’s become a part of in Pittsburgh.

“No, I haven’t,” he acknowledged. “It’s pretty fun to be out there with the guys.

“They have a lot of different guys that can quarterback it. They work together and they’ve played together for a long time, ‘Tanger’

218

[Letang], Malkin, Sid and ‘Kuny’ [Kunitz] in front, ‘Nealer’ [Neal].

You get those guys enough touches they’re going to make some things happen.”

They’ve been making things happen on the power play this postseason in a variety of combinations.

“One thing about the power play here, ‘Reirds’ [Reirden] has us all being able to be interchangeable and play different spots and feel comfortable in it and just feed off it and play hockey.

“Guys are working hard, too. They take a lot of pride in it. They want to make a difference.”

Added Kunitz: “We have a couple of guys that obviously go on the power play at different times. Sometimes we have two ‘D’ and sometimes we go four forwards. It really depends on what coach is feeling at that point. He calls a number and guys jump out. Guys are excited to go over the bench any time you can. Whatever they call you just want to produce and help your team.”

ICEBURGH A delight for children of all ages, Iceburgh — the official mascot of the Pittsburgh Penguins not only provides fans with exciting game entertainment but this large, energetic bird can also be seen at a multitude of community events and elementary schools throughout the greater Pittsburgh area.

Iceburgh arrived on the scene in 1992 and is a staple at all team events. During Penguins’ home games, fans most definitely notice the antics of Iceburgh leading sections of fans in cheers, greeting young children on the concourse or displaying his athleticism on-ice between periods.

In 1995, Iceburgh made his Hollywood debut, starring alongside Jean Claude Van Damme in the motion picture “Sudden Death.” He has gained both national and international exposure through film, TV and a variety of personal appearances.

Iceburgh wasted no time getting acquainted with his new home at CONSOL Energy Center in September of 2010. You can find Iceburgh sliding down stair banisters, dancing in the stands and tossing t-shirts to fans.

Iceburgh has performed in Russia and Japan, was featured in the opening of ESPN’s SportsCenter and recently performed in front of a record crowd of over 68,000 at Heinz Field for the 2011 Bridgestone NHL Winter Classic. He is also regularly featured on in-game videos and has appeared in advertisements and television promos on ROOT Sports.
