PT stands for Patrol Boat.
PT boats were small fast torpedo boats used by the United States Navy during WWII.
Their small size gave them a speed advantage over larger vessels such as destroyers and frigates. They would use their speed and small size to there advantage and close in on the size of their target ship then launch a series of torpedo's usually 4 and then speed away.
They had a 5 to 7 man crew and were armed with .50 cal heavy machine guns as well for engaging small vessels and anti aircraft defense.
pts generally stands for 'points', an individual statistic measuring goals + assists for one player.
For example, Evgeni Malkin, the NHL's leading scorer (aka he got the most pts or points) this past season (2011-12) scored 50 goals and got 59 assists, for a total of 109 pts

The "PT" in "PT Cruiser" stands for "Personal Transportation," as expressed at the 2002 PT Cruiser owners event at the Chrysler Headquarters in Auburn Hills Michigan. The event included a question and answer session with Chrysler Engineers from the PT Cruiser team where this question was raised and addressed. It does NOT stand for "Panel Cruiser" as the "woody" panel look was not added as factory option until a couple of years after the vehicles launch.
