Why they might be annoying:

    Is a Penguin really all that intimidating?

    It took them 24 years to win their first Stanley Cup.
    They were dead last in the NHL during the 1984 season.

    In addition to being a player, Mario Lemieux has also become Chairman and CEO of the Penguins.

Why they might not be annoying:

    They were one of the six NHL expansion teams of 1967, along with in-state rivals, the Philadelphia Flyers.
    They won back-to-back Stanley Cup's (1991, 1992).
    Their awful 1984 season gave them the opportunity to draft 'Super' Mario Lemieux.
    Mario scored 100 points in his first season.
    Bob Johnson had to be replaced as head coach after being diagnosed with brain tumors. He died a short time later in the fall of 1991.
    Mario Lemieux had to take the 1994-95 season off to recuperate from his chronic back problems.
