The Pittsburgh Penguins are currently on their NHL mandated five day break.
This is a break for a breaks sake, not to allow the best players in the world to compete in the most prestigious event for their sport, which could result in legendary performances, the immortalizing of icons, and exponential growth for a sport that wishes to extend it’s reach past North America and Europe.
Just a regular old break.
As you all know too well, the NHL will not be sending any athletes to the 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang. But let’s just imagine that this borderline treasonous act rational decision wasn’t made. If pros were going to the games, which members of the Pittsburgh Penguins would represent their country?
