And just after Palffy takes off and he was putting up a point per game...PIT is going down hard and they might be ready to deal deal deal. Maybe not Sid, there is no way they can survise without Sid, but they've gotta get some players in there and not just wait for the next 4-5 drafts to fill the line up.
Is there supposedly a new ownership group in Pitt to build a new arena or at least that was the rumour? If so, they got a few key young guys to build on and they will likely get the #1 pick as well. They are going to be horrible for a few years but if they can stay the course, they'll contend in 5 years or so. They've already lost Ziggy and Mario's salaries.
