The biggest story of the Rangers win has to be what ultimately happens to this Penguins team going forward. Despite their horrendous playoff campaign’s, Crosby and Malkin will not be going anywhere.

Obviously, trades are never formulated this way, but Spezza has been Ottawa’s best player over the past few years. Getting rid of him will hurt their team tremendously.
