The Pittsburgh Penguins are heading into a period of the season that will not only determine this season’s fate but perhaps the shape the team takes over the next few years. Currently sitting outside the final playoff spot in the East, the month of March will be crucial to the direction GM Ron Hextall steers this ship.
Coming off of three games in four days, the Penguins will have to rest up before starting a key three game set with the Philadelphia Flyers beginning Tuesday night.
