Big changes coming to the Pittsburgh Penguins
Following their heartbreaking game 7 OT loss to the New York Rangers the Pittsburgh Penguins will have some soul-searching to do this offseason.
Having been one of the most successful NHL franchises for the past 2 decades, led around the core of Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, and Kris Letang, the Penguins have won 3 Stanley Cups, but with the core players getting older, it may be time for the Penguins braintrust to begin a rebuilding phase.
