The history of the Pittsburgh Penguins is filled with anomalies and precursors.
Consider, for example, the strange case involving three of the team’s brightest stars—Michel Briere, Mario Lemieux, and Sidney Crosby. If you add the uniform numbers of Briere (21) and Mario (66), it equals Sid’s 87.
Stuff like that.
Along those lines, the paths of our three Stanley Cup winners and our present Penguins have followed an eerily familiar script.
I’m not a believer in signs and omens. And the last thing I want to do is jinx us.
