Meek Penguins go gently to Golden Knights
The Vegas Golden Knights (38-18-6) scored on their first two shots of the third period. The Pittsburgh Penguins (24-31-10) couldn't score on any of their shots.
The Penguins quickly faded and lost 4-0 to Vegas at T-Mobile Arena on Friday. Since the NHL season resumed following the Four Nations Face-Off, the Penguins are just 1-6-1.
The Penguins looked soft and overmatched. Perhaps it was the post-NHL trade deadline reality hitting home and realizing that help is not on the way, or perhaps the Penguins' struggles were the result of trading away several players to further the organization's revamp. Since the Penguins lost on Tuesday, general manager Kyle Dubas traded away scrappy winger Michael Bunting, the structured Anthony Beauviller, and the popular Cody Glass.

Lightning and NHL Unveil Logo for 2026 Stadium Series vs. Bruins
The NHL along with the Tampa Bay Lightning, have released what will be the official logo for the 2026 NHL Stadium Series, set to take place at Raymond James Stadium on February 1, 2026 against the Boston Bruins. The game will make history as the first outdoor NHL matchup held in a football stadium in Florida, serving as the highlight of a month-long celebration of hockey in the Sunshine State. Prior to the Lightning facing off against the Bruins, the Florida Panthers will play the New York Rangers on January 2, 2026, at loanDepot park, home of the Miami Marlins. Over the past six seasons, the state's two hockey teams have combined for four Cup wins, two of them coming from Tampa Bay in 2020 and 2021. The two outdoor games will be a tribute to the rise of hockey over the past three decades. 'Stanley Cups, strings of sellouts and the exponential growth of youth and high school hockey throughout the state have demonstrated that Florida is a hockey hotbed,' said NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman. 'Outdoor NHL games in the Sunshine State? Never let it be said that our League isn't willing to accept a challenge.' TNT will broadcast the 2026 NHL Winter Classic exclusively in the U.S. while ESPN will carry the 2026 NHL Stadium Series. Sportsnet and TVA Sports will deliver both games to fans in Canada.
