Young Mrazek shuts out Tampa in his 2016 playoffs debut tonight.
And Mrazek's Sabres in this game gets shut out of the cup finals.
I tried hard to build the best possible young team around future superstars like Eichel and Reinhart. The average age was 21.8.
Not enough hyped unproven hit-or-miss teenagers I guess. The Oilers strategy for rebuilding is still prevalent in the minds of HfBoarders. I tried a more Penguins way: After having already sucked enough to draft Crosby and Malkin, Pittsburgh turned the corner and added talent around Crosby and Malkin and stopped tanking. They developed into superstars and those around them got better as well.
It'd be interesting to look back at this a couple of years down the road.
TBH, I really liked your team this game and pegged you as the favourite to win. Unfortunately upsets do happen. Better luck next game
