2007-2008 NHL Season Preview - Pittsburgh Penguins

Pittsburgh Penguins

Notable moves and changes:Signed D Darryl Sydor and F Petr Sykora.
Starting goalie: Marc-Andre Fleury
Summary of last year: It seems incredible now, but at the mid-point of the season, the Pens were languishing in the bottom half of the standings. Once the young guns hit their stride, they were off to the races, and finished second in the Atlantic.
Prediction for this year: What else is there to say? Evgeni Malkin, Jordan Staal, Ray Whitney, Fleury, and Sidney Crosby are all only going to get better (heaven help us all). There’s a nice mix of veteran leadership here too, with Sergei Gonchar, Gary Roberts and now Sydor and Sykora. With that playoff experience and that young talent, expect to see the Pens at the top of the Eastern Conferenced for years to come.
