It's why they haven't made a cup final since they won it all...that and questionable defense and goaltending.

I'd rather have 4 lines that can make the opposition's life miserable than 2 elite stars that can be singled out and keyed on by the opposition defense.
The Penguins have no depth because they suck at drafting.
