There is a List of Pittsburgh Penguins players. when you add players to the main Penguins page, could you also add the players to the list? thanks! Masterhatch 10 August 2005

Alternate Logo?

Are they actually using that streamlined logo as an alternate these day? Yeah, it was the primary during the 90ies, but I thought they *rightfully* put it to bed. ccwaters 12:40, 15 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I'm going to rename that to something along the line of "Old Logo (1992-2002)" unless there are objections. I don't see any evidence of it being in use anymore. I'm fairly certain that there is a jinx story related to it in Pittsburgh. Maybe we should get a updated photo of Mario as well? ccwaters 19:22, 16 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

This logo hasn't been entirely retired; it's still on the shoulders of their current jerseys. So "old logo" isn't really accurate. wthrw 18:45, 17 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Captain ´94-´95

Wasn't Francis captain during the ´94-´95 season when Mario didn't play? Killer 01:56, 14 October 2005 (Swedish Time)

Yes. RGTraynor 01:02, 14 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Curious Reader: I beg to differ, although Ron Francis did indeed wear the 'C' that season, while Lemieux sat out ,to recover from his injuries. Lemieux didn't retire, or resign the captaincy, thus Francis served offically as Interim Captain, had Lemieux returned during that season ,Ronnie would have worn the 'A'. In other words Lemieux was still 'Offically' Team Captain. Therefore Ronnie shouldn't be listed as captain of the Penguins ,for the 1994-95 season. Lemieux's captaincy should read: 1987-97 & 2001-present. PS. if a player(s) on every team ,who wore the 'C' while the captain was out of the line-up ,was listed as a captain ,then there'd be hundreds of names listed in each Team site.

Francis was listed as the team captain in 94-95 by the NHL Media Guide, which is about as "official" as you can get. RGTraynor 04:50, 23 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

O.K. RGTraynor, If the NHL Media Guide say he was ,then he was. I can't argue with the facts. Thanks for the clarification RG, you've put hockey-mind at ease ,Plus all the better , for I'm a big fan of Ronnie Francis (Hall of Famer defintely in 2008).
