Hey pens fans,
FYI for anyone who didn't know the Pens have decided to keep Jordan Staal here in Pittsburgh. On the other hand, Kris LeTang has been sent back to his Canadian Junior Team. Eric Cairns has been recalled from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton after his rehab stint there. As, October comes to an end, I think that the hockey world is blinking is amazment at the progress the Pens have made. No one thought we would be a formidable opponent for a fews years. This Octoer has been one of the best, not only recently, but in team history. Now don't go bet your life savins that the Pens will win the the cup this yeaer, but they are a force to be reckoned with. Hopefully, this trend continues throug there Western road trip, which begins in LA, with a 10:30 pm face off time here on the east coast.

Penshockey Poll
Hey pens fans,
I just wanted to let you know that I have been having some problems with the Penshockey Poll, as you will notice it is currently missing from the site. I have tried multiple hosting services for it and none seem to work properly. Does anyone know of a good place to host a poll? If any one knows of a good service please leave it as a comment. I will continue to try to get a Poll to work, but that may take awhile. Any help would be appreciated.

Pens Fall to Hurricanes
Hey pens fans,
Well, tonight the Penguins lost to the Carolina Hurricanes at the Mellon Arena. The final score was 5-1. The Pens lone goal was scored by Letang from Gonchar and Ekman. Trevor Letowski of the Hurricanes was taken off on a stretcher after a colliding with Colby Armstrong. There was a large pool of blood on the ice. His neck was put in a brace and he was put on a backboard. EArly reports are saying that he has a large gash on his forehead, probably from falling face first on the ice and he is moving his limbs. Hopefully he is okay. Also, Marc-Andre Fleury left the game in the second period. He has a bruise on his forehead and a cut above his left eye. He sat out the remainder of the game. No word on if he will miss any games due to this. Malkin is expected to be back in the Pens lineup within the next week or so. Speculation is that it will be for Wednesday's home game at the Mellon Arena, which is Sidney Crosby Bobblehead night.
