Penguins fight to stay in playoff hunt
The slumping Pittsburgh Penguins face a critical stretch as coach Mike Johnston pushes for more offense and wins. A 5-3 loss to Columbus and a 4-1 defeat by Philadelphia left Pittsburgh 20-20-6 in their last 46, with Sidney Crosby leading the way but the team missing consistent scorers and key injuries.
