The Pittsburgh Penguins 2014-15 season is over. No, not because they lost to the Islanders by a score of 3-1 tonight. Not because I don't think they have it in them to defeat the Buffalo Sabres tomorrow to clinch a playoff spot. No, the real reason is because Kris Letang is out for the rest of the season.

This is a death blow. This is one injury too far for the Penguins.
This isn't being a defeatist or a pessimist. This is being a realist.
What a bummer.
