    As requested by readers, here is the new injury chart. Please let me know what you would like to see added/subtracted/changed.

    Also, for the sake of being complete, help filling in the “Past Injuries” portion would be greatly appreciated!

    I would like all of those to be subtracted… via players getting healthy. :(

    Letestu has been returned to WBS. I suppose that confirms that Talbot will be in the lineup tomorrow night…good news!

    Only Brooks Orpik, Chris Lee and Alex Goligoski are listed as scratches for tonight. I didn’t think Alex Goligoski was even traveling with the team – he isn’t practicing with them now, anyway. I wonder why the other players who are injured, Kunitz, Letang, McKee and Kennedy are not listed as scratches.

    @Jane, “scratches” are players who remain on the active roster. Players technically on injured reserves are not listed as scratches.

    For FF purposes, I list any player with a projected timetable of more than a week as on IR.

    Can you guys also keep track of man games lost by the penguins as compared to other teams for this season seems like it would be an interesting stat to know. Thanks guys and great job!

    Your replacement for Brent Johnson wasn’t Caputi, it was Curry… I know, I know…
    POOR MATT! =)

    Matt, Madden said on his show yesterday that Brent Johnson has a groin injury.

  12. Pens1967

    Jan 23, 09:58 PM

    P-G reports Talbot out (believed to be a groin injury) and Nick Johnson has been recalled.

    Who are the Pens trying to fool about Godard? Anyone who watched the game could see his knee buckle.

    Pool on who the call-ups will be?

    I got Conner and Brookbank.

  15. Ivan

    Jan 27, 06:49 PM

    Conner’s been re-recalled and will probably play with Crosby again on the top line against Ottawa :)

  16. Pens1967

    Jan 28, 01:04 PM

    Johnson re-called from WBS to fill Godard’s roster spot.

    Jan 28, 01:14 PM

    Godard has a groin injury?? Well, I’ll be…

    Pens’ web site says that Feds IS at practice today.

    Jordan Staal is one classy guy! check this out from the Pens’ official web site:

    Game-Winning Goal Changed from Staal to MalkinFriday, 03.05.2010 / 10:09 AM / News Pittsburgh PenguinsEvgeni Malkin has been credited with the game-winning goal in the Penguins’ 5-4 overtime victory over the New York Rangers Thursday night at Madison Square Garden.

    The goal was originally credited to Jordan Staal.

    Staal approached members of the Penguin’ communications staff after the game to say he did not touch the puck and should not have been awarded the goal. After reviewing video, the NHL agreed and has officially credited the goal to Malkin.

    The correct scoring on the play is: Goal by Malkin, with assists to Sergei Gonchar and Staal.

    By the way, where are the game grades?????

  23. Matt Bodenschatz

    Mar 5, 01:56 PM

    @Dabich, pretty cool that Staal would do that. I get the feeling this team is pretty close and most guys would do the same.

    As for grades, I’m not sure. Haven’t talked to Mike in a while.
