When looking at what's happening in Pittsburgh, one can't help but think that it's officially over for them. They've tried to keep a competitive team over the past two seasons, but it's time to move on.
Rebuilding will be long and painful, but it's necessary. This thought sparks a strong reaction regarding Sidney Crosby's end of career, with many influential people suggesting he will be traded.
However, there's a twist in the story, as a first source claims that the captain will re-sign with the Penguins in July. But there's more.
It's a very significant statement. While it's understandable that Crosby would want to finish his career with the Penguins, the fact that the team still believes in a dream, an illusion of perhaps winning another Stanley Cup, is another matter.
