Interesting but flawed article. They seem to think that Pittsburgh needs to rebuild before Crosby retires... honestly, this is about preparing for a post Crosby era.

The right thing to do here, is trade anybody over 25, that someone else wants.... assuming they are willing to go.

Not that it means his moves haven’t been any good.

Why not take him back and try to get him through again
