              Can The Pittsburgh Penguins Save Their Season?

              The Pittsburgh Penguins have a new management dream-team in place, announcing Tuesday that they were hiring veteran executives Brian Burke and Ron Hextall to fill the void left when former general manager Jim Rutherford abruptly stepped down in late January. Together, Hextall and Burke have roughly a half-century of combined NHL front-office experience and have won two Stanley Cups. Meanwhile, the team they're joining has won three Cups under captain Sidney Crosby since he arrived in Pittsburgh in 2005. Pedigree-wise, this is a championship-caliber match between franchise and leadership group. But are the current Penguins a championship-caliber outfit? Though it's a core headlined by Crosby, only eight players remain from Pittsburgh's 2016-17 title roster, half of whom are now age 30 or older. Since winning that Cup, the Pens have taken a step backward with each successive season: losing in the second round in 2018, the first round in 2019 and the bubble-restart qualifying round in 2020. Off to a weak 5-5-1 start in 2021's shortened schedule, and surrounded by better teams in the newly formed East division, Pittsburgh is suddenly running out of time to mount a bid for the playoffs at all, much less make a run at another Stanley Cup.
