So late getting these out.
Some of the photos from the Pens 4-1 win over Buffalo from last weekend are available after the jump.

Bonus Hockey: Pens vs Sens Game 3, May 19, 2013.
The Senators won in double overtime Sunday night to remain competitive in the series, now trailing the Penguins two games to one.
Game four is not until Wednesday.
Then hopefully an elimination game Friday.
We'll see.
Check out the photos from the game after the jump.

A Sid Trip: Pens vs Sens Game 2, May 17, 2013
The towels we were given on our way into the arena for game 2 Friday night read "Buckle Up Baby!"
The Ol' 29er Phil Bourque usually follows that up with "Are You Kidding Me?"
Sid was not kidding.
As far as the CEC crowd was concerned, those towels may as well have been soaked in LSD because Sid took us all on a really good trip.
Unless you were Craig Anderson, in which case it was a very bad trip,
and that led to an early trip
to the dressing room.
It's late (much like this post) so let's get to the photos after the jump.

Pens vs Isles Game 6, May 11, 2013. Elimination Island.
The Penguins and Islanders met at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum for game 6 of their first round series Saturday night. Not to give away too many spoilers for those of you seeing the game for the first time through this post, but....
Yeah, the Pens won.
The Pens won and spared their fans 20 hours or so of gut wrenching times waiting for a game 7 that would have been played Sunday night back in Pittsburgh.
More personally for Knitting Lady and me, the Pens won to extend our own "winning streak" to 10 games, and saved us from making the long drive back to Pittsburgh for that aforementioned game 7 that, thankfully, will never be.
Instead we get to drive home and start working on our game plan for round 2 and the Pens' next opponent, the Ottawa Senators (it's an eight and a half hour drive for us to Ottawa...hmmmm), just as Bylsma and Co. will be working on theirs.
Until then, we get to relax.
Just a little.
For now, we savor this victory.

Pens vs Isles Game 5, May 9, 2013
"Did you ever know that you're my hero?"
Yes, Tyler Kennedy, you are our hero. TK's sixth career playoff game-winning goal started a second period of scoring that turned a close game into another blowout and led to the Pens taking a 3-2 series lead in their first round match-up against the Islanders.
Check out more photos from the game after the jump.

Pens vs Canes & Shirts Off Our Backs Night, 4/27/2013
For a "meaningless" regular season finale, this one had some pretty decent storylines.
James Neal had a pretty good game after missing eight straight recovering from a concussion. We finally had a chance to throw those giveaway Pirates hats we've been carrying around for a while.
Tanger entered the game just two points behind PK Subban for the scoring lead among defensemen. Pretty impressive feat by itself, not even taking into consideration that he was doing it in seven fewer games or that his even strength point production is at levels normally unheard of for a D-man.
There were more Staal brothers than you could shake a hockey stick at, and I think one of them used to play for us or something.
Oh yeah, and our starting goalie became a new dad yesterday.
Oh man, almost forgot Paul Martin. He returned after a 12-game absence, but that's kind of the story of Paul Martin this season. He's just there making solid plays, getting the job done without really standing out. Or something like that. I don't know, but I didn't get any good pics of him tonight. I'll just toss this one up from earlier in the year because hey, he deserves to be here.
Not to mention the fact that the Pens entered this one on a two-game losing streak, and guaranteed first seed or not, I can't imagine any team wants to head into the playoffs dropping three in a row.
Check out the rest of the photos after the jump.

Pens practice at Southpointe, 4/26/2013
The Pens practiced at Southpointe Friday and they were joined by team captain Sidney Crosby. It was a welcome sight just days before the start of the most anticipated playoff run in four years.
The poor lighting at Southpointe usually defeats my limited camera skills but I managed to get a few decent shots. Check them out after the jump, including a couple of sweet sock pics involving some of the newer Penguins.

Pens vs Bruins, March 17, 2013
The Pens beat the Bruins 2-1 Sunday.
Crosby, Vitale and Vokoun played big parts but it took a total team effort to overcome the absence of Geno and Tanger, who went out late in the first causing the remaining five defensemen to really pick up the slack, including Paul Martin's 30+ minutes.
Check out photos from the game plus some postgame sock pics after the jump.

Pens vs Rangers, March 16, 2013
A shutout for Fleury.
Lots of secondary scoring.
Another strong third period for the Pens.
Things couldn't have gone much better.
Quick turnaround with another game tomorrow at 12:30.

Welcome to Kundyland
What a run these guys have been on, combining for 17 points against the Islanders Sunday night.
And how have I managed not to make a Tanger gif yet?
Been so long since our last game. Can't wait to get back to Pittsburgh this weekend.

Pens vs Sabres, February 17, 2013
The Pens may have blown an early 2-0 lead but Marc-Andre Fleury stood up to a 17-shot 3rd period Buffalo onslaught, allowing Paul Martin's goal to hold up as the game winner. Pittsburgh improved their road record to a very impressive 8-2-0. Hopefully they'll take some of that magic back to Consol Energy Center as they prepare for a 3-game homestand starting Wednesday against the Flyers.
I probably could have trimmed this post down a bit, but on a day where Sidney Crosby picked up three points against his frequent whipping boy, Ryan Miller, it seems appropriate to include 87 pics from the game. Check them out after the jump.

Pens vs Caps Feb 3, 2013
Pens fans haven't had that many chances to celebrate following a regular season game in Washington, D.C. in recent years but we got to do just that today after Chris Kunitz picked up a hat trick (and possibly a 4th goal that was credited to Paul Martin) to lead Pittsburgh to a 6-3 win over the stumbling Caps.
(Update: Kunitz has been credited with the goal)
(Update: Kunitz has been credited with the goal)
Knitting Lady and I wrapped up our own whirlwind weekend of hockey by joining our fellow Pens fans on the steps across from the Verizon Center and treating the departing Caps fans to a jolly good bit of jobbing.
Stick around below for some of our photos from the game, plus a video of the Kunitz hat trick goal.

Penguins sock photos and more
 |
Being the only two fans to go out on a cold, Friday morning before the Pens morning skate certainly has benefits as we managed to get a fresh crop of sock pics, and these are some of the best.
For Penguins captain Sidney Crosby, soon to make his second comeback of the season, being photographed with the lucky sock couldn't have come at a better time. Same goes for injured defensive star Kris Letang, who we all hope to see back in action very soon.
More pics after the jump.

Photoshop Expo: Trolling/Laughing Crosby
In case you've missed it, the Pensblog unveiled another photoshop expo today. Readers sent in over 150 submissions. My own contributions are below. It was a lot of fun, if not quite on the level of last year's "Where in the World is Sidney Crosby?" expo.
Check them out after the jump.

Game Photos: Pens @ Canes 12/3/2011 and Morning Skate
 |
A couple of times a season we like to sit behind the bench. Sure, it's a trade-off. Obviously you aren't going to get the perfect view of the game that you'd have 20 rows higher, but it does provide a great look inside the constant flurry of activity between coaches, players, officials, trainers and equipment guys. That was particularly true in this game given the unreal nature of the closing minutes. Check out our photos from the game and the Pens morning skate after the jump.

Game Photos: Pens vs Caps 12/1/2011

The Pens ended a long drought with their first regular season, regulation win over the Caps in over three and a half years in a mostly dominating performance that saw them clamp down in the final minutes to hold on to the 2-1 victory.
Check out our photos and video after the jump.

It was a pleasure to get to see Sid back on the ice again Friday night vs the Ottawa Senators. I'm sure at some point we'll get back to where seeing Sid play is just business as usual (and for the hundreds of fans who leave games early, maybe they've already reached that point) but for now it's just incredible being able to enjoy having our captain out there after going so long without him.
Check out our photos from the game after the jump.
