Pens Points: A perfect road trip

Here are your Pens Points for this Monday morning...

The Pittsburgh Penguins visited the Chicago Blackhawks Sunday night, entering an arena where they hadn’t won a game in since 2009. On Marian Hossa Jersey Retirement Night, it was Evgeni Malkin and Sidney Crosby, once Hossa’s teammates, who helped Pittsburgh earn a 4-3 win to complete the road trip. [Recap]

Sunday’s game was an important individual and franchise milestone: Evgeni Malkin became just the second player behind Sidney Crosby to play 1,000 games for the Pittsburgh hockey club. Here’s a retrospective of the career of “Mr. 101.” [PensBurgh]
