The Rise And Fall Of Mike Sullivan...

[Luigi Lemieux]

During the post-Cup Bylsma years Pittsburgh fans ate a lot of slop, that they feasted on nonetheless. The secret is...
...just keep feeding it to them. They will keep eating it and buying tickets, and merch, and remembering the good old days. If they start complaining, here's another disgusting helping of slop that you're going to chow down on boys and girls!

Pens were still an elite team back then, they were #1 in the NHL in points between 2010-2015. Just had some spectacular playoff failures. This is a far cry from that, they might actually be the worst team in the league.

Not to mention we still made the playoffs back then too.

The “slop” back then was either injuries or shit goaltending

Yea would you rather be perennially the best offensive team in the NHL with star players in their prime, or bottom of the East with the worst defense in the NHL and all your core players are almost 40? Lol.

Word was that Sid and the gang (Malkin and Letang) wanted Sullivan back for one last dance if they were to sign and stay like they did a couple of years ago.

Makes sense if the core wanted him back, there's very few players that have as much influence over a team as Sid does.
