After three consecutive non-playoff seasons and the team now in a rebuilding phase, the on-ice expectations for the Pittsburgh Penguins in the short-term are probably as low as they have been in decades.

This might be one of the most interesting and fascinating offseason the Penguins have had in decades.
- When it comes to the NHL Draft, the Penguins are going to be one of the busiest teams in the league one way or another.
