The full court press is on, and the Edmonton Oilers might be forced to make a move to address their goaltending situation. The team ranks dead last in team save percentage this season, with Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard combining for an abysmal .860 mark through the first 25 games of the Oilers’ season. Neither…
Talk about the game with Pens fans here!
The Edmonton Oilers need a new goaltender, and by the sounds of it, a trade could be coming in a matter of days, not weeks. After the Oilers crumbled on Tuesday night, their superstars called out just about every aspect of the team, including their goaltenders, and admittedly the team hasn't helped them at all this season. Both Stuart Skinner and Cal Pickard are pending unrestricted free agents, and considering the results so far this season, it's become quite obvious the Oilers are look...
While football takes the spotlight on Thanksgiving Day, the Wednesday before Thanksgiving is one of the biggest nights of the year for hockey. Having Andouille lentil soup for dinner and watching the Penguins game on Thanksgiving Eve is an annual tradition for my family just as much as the turkey and stuffing. With Thanksgiving Eve […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers flat out refuse to throw the ball over the middle of the field – and that’s not new. But it is new, however, for offensive coordinator Arthur Smith. Smith has come under fire from a lot of Steelers fans due to this big empty space in Mason Rudolph’s passing chart against the […]
Colin Cowherd is one of the largest voices and faces of sports media in America. When you are consistently in the crossfire of Cowherd, there is typically some smoke where there is fire. On Tuesday, Cowherd echoed what many locally in the media and fans have been thinking for quite some time. The Pittsburgh Steelers […]
On Tuesday, it was announced that Hines Ward is a semi-finalist to be inducted into the National Football League’s Hall of Fame. With a lengthy list of accolades, there is no questioning the talent of the longtime Pittsburgh Steelers receiver. While examining the statistics may give you all you need to know, one person understands […]
After the win against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams was asked about the sack he took in the end zone, which he fumbled away for a Steelers touchdown, and whether he should have just taken a dive and given up a safety instead. “Yeah… what I’m supposed to do is just throw […]
So…let’s talk about Sunday. With their frustrating loss to the Chicago Bears, the Steelers not only lost the AFC North lead, but also tumbled out of playoff position altogether. If the season ended today, Mike Tomlin and crew would be left crooning whatever the NFL postseason’s equivalent is to “I’ll Be Home for Christmas.” With […]

It was another disappointment for the Pittsburgh Steelers as they fell 31-28 to the Chicago Bears on Sunday. The Steelers started strong and were able to force Bears quarterback Caleb Williams into uncomfortable situations early, as T.J. Watt strip-sacked the young signal caller early in the game, but things flipped dramatically in the second half. […]

Here are your Pens Points for this Wednesday morning… How effective can forward Tommy Novak be for the Pittsburgh Penguins? It appears, under the hood at least, he has some talent to drive play and score goals, but none of that has really translated in a black and gold sweater since the team acquired him […]
The Bears continued their winning ways on Sunday, defeating the Steelers 31-28 in a tight matchup that saw Chicago improve to 8-3 in front of their home crowd. As the close score and high-scoring point would leave one to believe, it wasn’t a flawless performance from the Bears by any means in Week 12. The […]
The Chicago Bears moved to 8-3 on Sunday, knocking off the Pittsburgh Steelers at Soldier Field. Caleb Williams, a dynamic rookie class, and Dennis Allen’s never-say-never defense were the story. Before we turn the page to the Steelers’ Pennsylvania neighbors, the Philadelphia Eagles, let’s tip our caps to the stars of Chicago’s Week 12 victory in this week’s Good, Better, Best.
Good: Caleb Williams

Steelers defensive tackle Daniel Ekuale has been suspended five games for violating the NFL’s performance-enhancing substances policy, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Gerry Dulac reported Tuesday. Ekuale is currently on injured reserve following an ACL injury he suffered against the Green Bay Packers. He’ll still be able to serve his suspension while on IR, but he’ll miss […]
I hope Montez Sweat gets serious consideration for NFC Defensive Player of the Week honors for his efforts in the Chicago Bears’ Week 12 win against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Sweat stuffed the stat sheet to the tune of 2 sacks, 3 solo tackles, 3 tackles-for-loss, 1 forced fumble, 1 fumble recovery, and 2 quarterback hits. Heck, I think Montez Sweat would have been a virtual lock for NFC Defensive Player of the Week honors had he picked up a third sack, but Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolp...
The Pittsburgh Steelers have signed former Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Cornell Powell to their practice squad, the team announced on Tuesday. Powell was drafted in the fifth round of the 2021 NFL Draft out of Clemson, where he had a terrific senior season. He caught 53 passes for 882 yards and seven touchdowns in […]

With one game left in November, the Chicago Bears are 8-3. That alone is worth celebrating. Don’t let the opponents’ records bring down the celebration. Don’t let the haters and box score-watchers bring you down. The Bears are in first place in the NFC North. The other teams aren’t because they haven’t won enough games. […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers fell to 6-5 after a tough loss to the Chicago Bears on Sunday. The loss dropped them out of first place in the AFC North — as well as playoff seeding entirely — with the once 1-5 Baltimore Ravens seizing control of the division for the first time this season. As Mike […]
When you watch Tommy Novak play, it is not that difficult to understand why the Pittsburgh Penguins had an interest in acquiring him and why they want him to be a part of this team. There is clearly talent here. There is skill to his game, and I think it could work in a variety […]
The Buffalo Bills (7-4) are on the verge of being on the outside looking in when it comes to the AFC playoff picture, and one week after their offensive line was bullied by a ferocious Houston Texans’ front four, the task won’t get any easier when the Bills travel to play the Pittsburgh Steelers (6-5) […]
