In late January, we asked you, the reader, where you thought the Pittsburgh Penguins would finish in the Eastern Conference standings.

124 of you responded, and the results were as follows:

1 – 0%
2 – 0%
3 – 0%
4 – 4%
5 – 6%
6 – 19%
7 – 32%
8 – 17%
9 – 11%
10 – 7%
11 – 2%
12 – 1%
13 – 0%
14 – 0%
15 – 1%

Clearly, the vast majority — 68% — predicted a playoff berth.

Let’s revisit this topic and see how you feel more than a month later, after a coaching change, several trades, and an 11-4-1 stretch that has bumped them from 10th place to 8th place in the standings.
