End of an era. It was the best of times at its height and now its over. People are wondering what’s ahead now, what changes.
Good luck to the Bruins in the finals.
I wouldn't say that, necessarily. Crosby and Malkin are still in their 20's, and they have some young defensive prospects coming along that should arrive over the next couple of seasons. Goaltending needs to be addressed, and I think they need a bit more overall balance among the forward unit (which could be addressed through free agency). They'll still be a good team next season, and may even contend again if they can square away the goaltending (Ryan Miller?) and improve the defense a bit.
