Penguins Descend To Unprecedented Depths

The Pittsburgh Penguins 4-3 loss Tuesday to the Florida Panthers marked the worst start (0-4-5) in the team’s 39 year history. Mario Lemieux, the man if ever there could be called one behind the Penguins’ Stanley Cup banners, appeared out of character arguing with the referee who called him for a penalty that left Pittsburgh shorthanded when they surrendered an overtime goal.

Dating back to 2001-2002, Florida has beaten Pittsburgh ten straight times. Hopefully Pittsburgh won’t wind up winless after its tenth game Thursday hosting Atlanta.
