I may be older but I'm never forgetting #47 & #41
It's still nice to see that stuff, but sad too because of what could have been.
Everyone around us got better. They saw the standard the Pens set, and did everything they could to build teams in order to beat us. Teams adapted, teams evolved, teams improved.
And what did we do? We stayed the same. We got caught in a holding pattern and sometimes even unwittingly taking a step back or two because of misplaced loyalty and the old school way of relying on "veteran experience," all the while forgetting that it was your kids that got you to the promise land to start with in '09.
Six years. Six. What a ****ing waste.
Those kids also got the team to the finals the year before too.
