from the Times-Tribune,
Sure, the money is much better in the NHL and there’s always that bit about fulfilling one’s lifelong dream of playing in the best league in the world, but the move also required the atmospheric change of going from a winning team to a losing environment and a sold-out building to a half-empty one.
Those days are officially over.
The parent Penguins are now the next big thing in the NHL, a club with plenty of offensive flash and some of the best young talent in the world. Not only have they clinched a postseason berth, they’re heading into the last week of the regular season with a chance to win a division title.
And perhaps more than any other player, Erik Christensen is riding the wave.
