As the initial rush of free agency wears off and the doldrums of the NHL offseason begin to set in, news and content can be hard to come by. During an earlier break in the action this summer, we introduced a new segments where we recount moments from past Pittsburgh Penguins lore.
Our debut piece in this series published a few weeks ago and went back to 2016 to relive a terrorizing Chris Kunitz blunder that nearly put half of Pittsburgh into a local emergency room.
At the end of that piece, we solicitated ideas for future features, which leads us to where we are right now, sitting in a time machine, about to head back to 1992 as the Penguins and Chicago Blackhawks were facing off in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final.
