They will only get better the longer they play together. They have tasted success and are a hungry group of young men.

The Penguin's reign has just begun. The average age of the team is 28. I"m so proud to be from Pittsburgh! I love my city and teams!

Much as I like the Pens, I suspect the Caps will win.

      The Penguins have two of the best players in the world and they are here to stay. They are both so young that they can barely drink the victory champangne afterwards. If the Penguins GM can secure a few talented wingers then it is game over, i can see this Penguins team winning least 3 Stanley Cups or more.

        If they can go the remainder of the season without any further major injuries I think they can repeat. Before they had injuries to key players, Gonchar, Kennedy. Goligoski, Latang and Orpik it looked as though they were going to break the record for wins in a season. That wont happen now but a return dance with Lord Stanley looks good.

          Had the flyers not taken a fighting penalty aftre being up by 3 goals last year the pens would have lost that series so I think they will not win this year.
