Pittsburgh Penguins aim for 300 goals in upcoming NHL season

Summary

The Pittsburgh Penguins look to build on a strong offensive showing from last season when they scored 293 goals, ranking third in the NHL. Last season’s success stemmed from a balanced scoring attack with 13 players netting double-digit goals, highlighted by Anthony Mantha's career-high 33 goals.
