Dick Tarnstrom, Andy Chiodo, Dan Focht, Brian Holzinger, Konstantin Koltsov, J-S Aubin, Rico Fata, Aleksey Morozov, Mike Eastwood, Ric Jackman, Josef Melichar. I may only have been 9 but I've remembered those names. It's been a while. Cool vid. Even though we sucked its kinda neat to look back on those guys.
you know what though it was all worth it, because they ended up drafting Malkin that year and infact they came on strong at the end of the season that year I think they went 12-5-2 after they had there 18 game winless streak
this was a fantastic year, despite being in last place. i had so much fun watching guys like fata and jackman and hussey (remember him?) and especially when "boogey" got his first goal in like, forever. And Morozov is still my favorite Penguin, despite the fact he's no longer here.
Man, were we bad that year. But hey, we got Malkin and Crosby because we were so bad, so the end did justify the means. Kind of sad that a lot of the Pens "fans" know nothing of this year and what it was to go through it. Remember the joy in the place when we beat the Ducks at home for our first home win in like 3 months.
morozov couldnt afford to sit out a year and signed a 2 year contract in the russian elite league and hasnt come back, although i think we still own his rights. koltsov, well, who gives a shit
he didnt "suck" We just werent experience enough that year, having an 18 year old and a 24 year old goalie, having really young players, all the players on that team could have a great future in hockey.
