Years of financially induced ineptitude have enabled the Pens to draft an amazing core of young talent led by Marc-Andre Fleury, Evgeni Malkin, Jordan Staal, and of course the NHL's best player, the 20 year old (!) reigning scoring champion and current MVP, Sidney Crosby. Such talent enabled the Pens to make a 47 point leap between the '05-'06 and '06-'07 NHL seasons, good for the 4th best one season improvement in NHL History. With such talent a year older and more experienced (especially a bigger, stronger Crosby) and the assurance of a new arena on the way to replace the NHL's oldest, Pens fans expect nothing less than a deep play-off run. Perhaps this is the year that the Stanley Cup will return to Pittsburgh.

Let's Go Pens!
