For weeks now, and usually after a loss in the locker-room after games many players on the Penguins have been saying something along the lines of, “we’re going to find out what we’re made of now” as the stretch approaches.
Unfortunately for them, the slow reveal has been one to show a team that just doesn’t measure up. After a 5-1 loss where the Pens didn’t look like they belonged on the same ice with a real playoff team in the New Jersey Devils, Pittsburgh has fallen below the playoff line with just four games to go.
Oh, there was some movement in the Eastern Conference Wild Card race last night.
