After signing Kris Letang and Evgeni Malkin to new contracts in the off-season and trading for Jeff Petry�the Pittsburgh Penguins were predicted to be a playoff contender once more this year. Penguins believed they had what it took to compete in the Metropolitan Division.
With a record of 27-21-9 and a spot in fifth place in the Metropolitan Division, the Pittsburgh Penguins wouldn't be in the postseason if the playoffs began today.�When the Edmonton Oilers beat the Pittsburgh Penguins 7-2 on Thursday night, the Penguins' fans let their frustrations be known by chanting "Fire Hextall."
Hextall has�left�the Penguins�with very little money to boost his team's odds unless, as he did for his former teams he has managed.
