The Penguins are riding a five-game winning streak going into Saturday's game. (Update: They won, now it's a six-game streak.) This after being four spots out of the playoffs a week and a half ago. It's like the Penguins suddenly realized, "Hey, we've got that Lemeiux guy. He's pretty good."
Of course, nobody in the city knows about it; the Penguins' season doesn't begin here until the Steelers' season ends.
