Project/Objectan interview with André Cholmondeleyby Live Music HeadOriginally published at timessquare.com on…
Kris Letang has to date spent his entire professional hockey career with the Pittsburgh Penguins, and the organization has to be thrilled with the return on their 2005 Third Round Pick.
Marc-Andre Fleury, the First Overall Draft Pick of 2003, would actually start in net for the Pittsburgh Penguins that year as an 18-year-old, making him the youngest ever to jump in between the pipes. He improved annually and became the starting Goalie in the Pens' Stanley Cup Championship in 2009. While he was not a threat for the Vezina as a Penguin, he was a steady presence for Pittsburgh and a definite asset for them as they made their Championship runs. He would help Pittsburgh win the 2016 Cup (though played sparingly due to post-concussion syndrome) and again in 2017, where he backstopped them to their fifth Championship.
The Pittsburgh Penguins chose Evgeni Malkin with the second overall pick in 2004, but due to a transfer dispute between the NHL and the IIHF, Malkin could not report until the 2006/07 season. The Russian star was worth the wait!
