The NHL unveiled the last of their Quarter Century team, 25 players in the 21st century. Marc-Andre Fleury joined Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin on the NHL QC team.
That led to the natural conclusion, what about a Pittsburgh Penguins quarter century team? To make it a little more challenging and balanced, we’re not going to put Jaromir Jagr or someone like that on the fourth line, since that wasn’t a fourth line player. So we’ll go with role-specific honorees. We’ll also stick as closely as possible to be position correct as well and not slide Evgeni Malkin to the wing or something like that, since he didn’t often play there.
