RICHMOND, Va. -- From the moment that it was rumored to be a possibility, Mario Lemieux's purchase of the Penguins to settle the very real fears of bankruptcy and either relocation or dissolution seemed like a dream come true, a perfect, storybook ending.
Three decades since, it’s difficult consider the the move anything but a rousing, unqualified success, with a new building, a massive leap in franchise value and new heights of national prominence … not to mention those three big silver trophies!
