Last August we made some 2018-19 season predictions. A dead summer Sunday is as good a time as any to circle back and see what we got right (and maybe not so right).
#1 The Pens 5v5 offense will be tangibly better in 2018-19 than it was in 2017-18
Perhaps the easiest prediction of all. In 2017-18, the Penguins scored 161 5-on-5 goals. While that was good for 12th in the league, which isn’t bad - it is quite a fall from being 2nd in 2016-17with 187 5v5 goals.
