- With the Pittsburgh Penguins eliminated from the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the future of another cup for Sidney Crosby is up in the air. With Malkin and Letang expiring, one question needs to be asked -- "Should the Penguins REBUILD?"
Thanks for watching!

Even if somehow the cap could be manipulated is some alternate reality allowing Pittsburgh to keep both Malkin and Letang...if that scenario entailed the Penguins to be near cap-maxed, no realistic financial flexibility left...in my opinion it would be still be advisable to still let Malkin walk and get Letang under contract. Yes, Malkin is an All-Time Penguin, Hall of Famer. But he is 35 years old now and over the last couple seasons it has been shown that his proneness to extended injuries is getting worse. Aging will probably not reverse that trend. It's probably better long term for the franchise to part ways with Malkin and start planning the beginning of a new era with the cap space. Its cutthroat & its cold. But the NHL is a business.
they have 24 million in cap space to re sign 4 players malkin and letang will eat 14 million. The situation isnt that bleak lol
Can't imagine any of those guys in different uniforms.
