After the Penguins flamed out of the 2013 playoffs in dramatic fashion, scoring 2 goals in 4 games, while being swept by the Boston bruins, many people expected changes to come within the organization.
The opposite happened.
Ray Shero gave Dan Bylsma a contract extension.
He gave Chris Kunitz a four-year contract extension. He gave Pascal Dupuis a four-year contract extension. He signed Rob Scuderi to a four-year contract. EVERYONE GETS A FOUR YEAR CONTRACT!
In retrospect, this was what seemed like beyond a repairable situation, and we would find that out within a years time.
