Penguins Don’t Know Whether to Cry or Wind Their WatchesMike Lange reminded the Pittsburgh Penguins of some of their bygone glories Saturday afternoon. The Washington Capitals spent a good chunk of the few hours that followed reminding the Penguins just how far they are from doing anything more than talking about being a championship contender.
From Mario Lemieux to Jaromir Jagr, and Crosby to Malkin, the Penguins’ stars loved Lange. His voice was a prominent soundtrack of their careers. Lange would often bellow “Make me a milkshake, Malkin” when the Russian star would score a goal. Malkin loved it.
Pittsburgh played pretty well for 30 minutes, and then the bottom fell out as it was embarrassed in an 8-3 loss against Washington.
