Penguins president: ‘We can win a couple more Cups’

The Pittsburgh Penguins are far from done.

While team president David Morehouse was enjoying his day with the Stanley Cup - his third since assuming the position in 2007 - he affirmed his belief that the recent run of success is entirely sustainable.

"I actually think we can win a couple more Cups," Morehouse told Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. "We have the best owner in hockey, the best general manager, the best coach, and a bunch of the best players."

Morehouse is referring to team owner Mario Lemieux, GM Jim Rutherford, and likely a group of players that include Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, Phil Kessel, Kris Letang, and Matt Murray.

The Penguins, of course, have won the past two Stanley Cups, and will be aiming for a rare three-peat, something that hasn't been achieved since the New York Islanders dynasty in the early 1980s.

"The goal would be to try and replicate what we’ve been able to do," Morehouse added. "It’s the hardest trophy to win, but I’d like to give it a shot and try to win a few more."
