News: Superstitious Sidney Crosby didn't want to jinx his shot at a hat trick after his first two goals. Perhaps for the same reason, he isn't willing to acknowledge he's morphing into a top pure goal-scorer. Crosby had his third career hat trick and the Pittsburgh Penguins became the first NHL team to reach 10 victories this season, snapping the Montreal Canadiens' four-game winning streak with a 6-1 victory Wednesday. A few hours later, Colorado also reached 10 wins, beating Calgary 3-2. Crosby, tied for fourth in the NHL with nine goals, had his third multiple-goal game in 12 starts this season for Pittsburgh (10-2-0). "When you get three goals in a game, that kind of changes the look of your [season] numbers early on," said Crosby, who has 36 goals in his past 55 games (including the playoffs). "I'm trying to shoot the puck when I get chances and trying to not pass up good shots, but it's just been a matter of the puck going in early on." [...]

News: Sidney Crosby found a lot of ways to score in his 300th career NHL regular-season game. Crosby had a power-play goal and a short-handed score in the third period, and had the only goal in a shootout to help the Pittsburgh Penguins win their seventh straight game, 3-2 over the Florida Panthers on Friday. "We struggled in the first half, but we were able to rebound," said Crosby, who has 407 career points. "We stuck with things, and that shows a lot." After erasing a two-goal deficit in the third period, Crosby beat Tomas Vokoun with a nifty deke in the shootout for the Stanley Cup champion Penguins, an NHL-best 9-1-0. Crosby's first goal of the game came a second after a 5-on-3 power play had expired 2:14 into the third after a diving effort to keep in the puck in the zone by Malkin. Malkin swatted the puck to Alex Goligoski, who fed an open Crosby in the right-wing circle. "Every game's not going to be perfect," Crosby said. "We found a way to turn the game around." [...]

It finally happened in Toronto. Sidney Crosby scored two power-play goals and Sergei Gonchar added another in the Penguins' 5-2 win Saturday. Gonchar and Evgeni Malkin were given plenty of time to work their magic on the right side of the ice and produced a multitude of scoring opportunities. Gonchar loves setting up Malkin for one-time slap shots, and two goals resulted from such plays. Crosby picked up a bounce off the boards from a Malkin miss and banged home his first power-play goal early in the second period. Later in that period, Crosby deflected a Malkin shot for his second goal. [...]

News: Sidney Crosby is still speaking softly, only now he's carrying a different stick. The Stanley Cup-winning Pittsburgh Penguins captain plans to use a one-piece synthetic hockey stick for the first time during the season-opener Friday night against the New York Rangers. Previously, Crosby used a two-piece stick that consisted of a wooden blade attached to a synthetic shaft. In the NHL, wooden sticks have become about as common as wooden bats in Little League baseball. "I'm really happy with the way it's coming along," Crosby said Thursday. "I haven't had any issues and I'm pretty confident with it." Most NHL players switched to composite material sticks several years ago because they believe it increases the velocity of their shots and makes the pucks harder to stop. Crosby has noticed a difference since he began working with the composite sticks during the Penguins' short offseason. "I think my shot's a little harder, yeah," Crosby said. "We'll see how it works in a game. Definitely in practice I feel like I'm able to get a little more on my shots." [...]
