The Penguins lost 5-2 to the Blackhawks last night, significantly hurting their chances of making the playoffs. Indeed, a win by the Islanders against the Tricolore tonight would systematically eliminate Pittsburgh from the playoff race. It would be the first time since 2005-2006 that Sidney Crosby's team would not participate in the spring ball. This would be a huge setback for the Penguins, who have several talented players in their lineup. Many fans have called for the departure of general manager Ron Hextall in recent weeks and many reporters assigned to the team have also stipulated the possibility of the former goalie losing his job at the end of this season. On air on BPM Sports this morning during his show Premier conteur, Jean-Charles Lajoie suggested the possibility of seeing Marc Bergevin return as general manager if Ron Hextall was ever fired. Philippe Boucher also added that he would not be surprised to see the Quebecer being hired by the Penguins this summer. The former Canadiens general manager knows the team well, having played three seasons with Pittsburgh in the early 2000s. This is only speculation for the moment, but this proposal put forward by Jean-Charles Lajoie is very interesting.
