Pens Take Over First Place

With a 4-2 win last night over the Boston Bruins the Pittsburgh Penguins have taken sole possession of first place in the Atlantic Division. While this may not last longer than 22 hours - the Devils play the hapless Flyers tonight - it is a terrific accomplishment on top of everything else this team has been able to do this season.

Armstrong, Christensen (2) and Malkin had the Pens goals. Crosby padded his lead in the scoring race with 3 assists. Sid now has a 12 point lead over San Jose's Joe Thornton (source:Yahoo Sports) and looks very likely to win the regular season scoring title. See full story here:
