Just a couple short months after the Penguins lost in Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Finals, a redesigned Pittsburgh Penguins' team starts the long haul again as they open the season against the Ottawa Senators in Sockholm, Sweden, on Saturday afternoon. While some of the faces have changed from last season, the desire to win hockey games and advance deep into the playoffs remains the same. But before the season even gets underway, the Penguins have been blessed with more adversity in losing their top-2 defensemen for an extended period to injury and surgery. Will it serve as a handicap to the team, or a catalyst for other players to step up and take on the mantle of responsibility? Only time will tell, but if recent Penguins' history is any guide, watch out!
