The Penguins are going back to the Stanley Cup Playoffs, as Pittsburgh's win over the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday punched its postseason ticket for a 12th straight season.
A season filled with ups and downs for the Penguins is coming together at just the right time, as Pittsburgh has points in 11 of 14 games down the stretch.
Two Cups in as many years.

The Penguins are the second Metropolitan Division squad to clinch a playoff spot this week, as the Washington Capitals did so with their victory over the New York Rangers on Wednesday.
