The 2011–12 Pittsburgh Penguins season was the franchise's forty-fifth season in the National Hockey League (NHL). The Penguins, which was led by head coach Dan Bylsma and started the season without captain center Sidney Crosby, still managed a 51–25–6 record, an East-best 29 home wins, and 108-point average, which was second-best in the Eastern Conference.

Background

[edit]

In February, the team began the league's longest season winning streak and also saw the return of Crosby after missing more than forty games with concussion-like symptoms, before it saw its streak end in March at eleven games.[citation needed]

Center Evgeni Malkin was able to play in seventy-five games despite difficulties associated with recent knee surgery and recorded his greatest goal tally in a season (fifty) on the way to winning his second Art Ross Trophy. Marc-Andre Fleury tied a franchise record for goalie wins (226) in a victory against the Atlantic division winning-New York Rangers.[citation needed]

The fourth-seed Penguins saw its playoff run end when it lost to the same team that halted its regular-season winning streak, the Philadelphia Flyers, losing the first three games before its final loss in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Semi-finals.[citation needed]

On April 27, Malkin was named as one of three finalists for the Hart Memorial Trophy,[2] marking his third-career nomination for the award. On June 20 Malkin finished first in votes for the Hart Trophy, earning his first career MVP award.
