Back in the spring, Rich Vargo and his girlfriend Becky Clever had their annual motorcycle trip all figured out. They take a two-week, themed trek every year, and for this particular ride, they were going northeast to travel the New England coast and eat lots of lobster along the way.

But during the Stanley Cup Final against the Predators, Vargo was watching one of the games when he got an idea. Instead of going up the coast, he thought, they should visit each of the cities the Penguins had a playoff series in. He mentioned the idea to Clever, who agreed, even though she isn't the biggest sports fan.

The Penguins signed forward Zach Aston-Reese as a highly-coveted undrafted free agent out of Northeastern. Get to know the Staten Island, N.Y. native here with this Q&A.

It feels like just yesterday that 'Sid the Kid' broke into the NHL as an 18-year-old back in 2005. Time has flown by so fast, and Crosby has grown up so much. 

Milestone birthdays are a time for celebrating and reflecting. And on Monday, when he turned 30, Sidney Crosby was able to do both with the Stanley Cup by his side - though he did admit it was more about the former than the latter for him.

Young, the Penguins' newly-appointed director of player development, will serve as an assistant on head coach Tony Granato's staff

Scott Young has enjoyed quite the summer in 2017. First, the former Penguins right wing was elected to the United States Hockey Hall of Fame as a member of the Class of 2017. Then, on July 28, he was added to the Penguins' hockey operations staff as director of player development.

Belle Vernon, Pa., winner of Kraft Hockeyville™ USA 2017 as the country's most passionate hockey community, will host a series of exciting activities at Rostraver Ice Garden from September 21-24, including a ticketed practice session by the Stanley Cup® Champion Pittsburgh Penguins® on the morning of Sunday, September 24. 

Last season, Scott Young would take a break from his role as an assistant coach at Boston University and drive 30 minutes to Cushing Academy to watch his son Tyler, who played for the school's hockey team.

A lot of times, Young would run into former Penguins teammate Mark Recchi, whose son Cameron was also on the team. Young and Recchi ended up spending a fair amount of time with each other throughout the year, at both Cushing Academy and BU, as Young took Recchi's daughter for a tour when she came to the campus for a college visit.

That constant contact with Recchi helped Young land his new position as the Penguins' director of player development. And he couldn't be more thrilled to rejoin the organization he won the Stanley Cup with as a player in 1991.
