Looking back on the 2003-04 Pens, as the Sabres close in on their losing streak

The Buffalo Sabres tied a record no one wants to, losing their 18th straight game a couple of nights ago. The only other team in NHL history in the last 25 years to lose that many games was our very own 2003-04 Penguins who went 0-17-1 from January-February 2003.

The good old days. The X-Generation.

There was a recent thread on twitter about how distraught this would have been in the social media era to lose so much, but back then while living through it, I never felt the same. Everyone knew the Pens were bad that year and going to be bad.
