It was quite the debut for new Penguins coach Dan Muse and for rookie goaltender Arturs Silovs, who shut out the Rangers at Madison Square Garden. Paul Steigerwald has the story of a big Penguins’ win.
Muse was happy with the win but saw lots of room for improvement.
Muse was humbled by the opportunity to step behind the Penguins’ bench.
Penguins captain Sidney Crosby liked the way the Penguins helped each other.
Crosby says there is a lot of pep in the Penguins, and it comes from the mix of veterans with something to prove and youngsters getting a shot in the NHL.
The Penguins play the Islanders tomorrow in the home opener, which will feature a special pregame ceremony honoring Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, and Kris Letang, the first trio of players in any sport to play twenty years together with one franchise.
