Ron Cook: Halfway through the season, Penguins have been best show in town

Two tweets about the Penguins jumped out at me from all of the social media chaos surrounding the ending to the Bills-Chiefs game Sunday night, the NFL overtime rules and the futures of Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers.

One was from Penguins long-time historian Bob Grove: "As their season hits the halfway point [Sunday], a win by Pens would put them on pace to record 114 points this season — the second-highest total in team history. They amassed 119 points in 84 GP without shootouts in 1992-93."

The other tweet was from team radio voice Josh Getzoff: "The Pens hit the midway point in game #41 Sunday against WPG. They will have played 34 games w/o Malkin, 12 games w/o Crosby, 22 games w/o Rust, 6 games w/o Guentzel, 6 games w/o Sullivan, 3 games w/o Letang."
