The Penguins are a franchise that has alost folded 4 or 5 times before this most recent bout of trouble.
While it would be nice to see them stay in Pittsburgh, it seems apparent that over the last 30 years the city will only support the winners, and won't stick with them through the down times.
Pittsburgh has had their chances - time to let the franchise move on, where ever it goes.
