On Monday the Penguins’ website wrote about the team having three objectives entering the offseason and how they have achieved all of them with their roster moves.
Those objectives: Get younger, get faster, become harder to play against.
With the additions of Alex Galchenyuk, Dominik Kahun, and Brandon Tanev, combined with the subtractions of Phil Kessel, Olli Maatta, Matt Cullen (we should be assuming he is not returning, right?) they are definitely younger. They can not really be classified as a “young” team by any stretch, but they did get younger.
