Friday afternoon is the official finale to the 2009-10 season for the Pittsburgh Penguins. Two days after losing to the Montreal Canadiens in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference semifinals, the team, coaches and staff gathered at Mellon Arena for one last time.
The players will clean out their lockers and meet with the coaching staff. Every player will get the coaches season and postseason evaluation of his play, advice on how to improve and an offseason program of workouts and skills to work on.
The day is also the final goodbye for the team. It is the last time that this group will be together ever. With free agency and other dynamics, next year's team will not resemble this year's squad. So this group that battled side by side for eight months will shake hands and part ways.
