The Penguins kicked off the first two games of the 2025-26 campaign with 4 huge divisional points over Mike Sullivan's New York Rangers and the spotlighted New York Islanders.
Dan Muse has shown Penguins fans that a new voice was needed around this team to break some player habits, bring sides out of players and have this Penguins squad hunkering down against division rivals.
The last five season's for the Penguins has seen them choke and hand away crucial points in crunch time against team's like the Rangers and Islanders. Despite the fact we are only two games in, the Muse system has shown that the Penguins can now properly defend and play a structured system that allows them to win hockey games and not play laid back and sit on leads like in the Mike Sullivan era.
