Everyone knows that this was an up-and-down season for the Pittsburgh Penguins. And we also know that the Pens were extremely inconsistent, and many times had us thinking how a team with such talented players could struggle so much. But even with all that being said, something seems off. Something just isn’t adding up.
It feels almost as if we are in a dream… actually, a nightmare. A nightmare that is so perplexing that it is inconceivable in every sense of the word. Getting swept to the New York Islanders in the first round of the playoffs? If you told me that before this season started, I would have chuckled and carried on with my day.
