1991-92 was the year some things in the NHL happened. Meanwhile both of the 2016 Stanley Cup participants were apart of what happened. The NHL through expansion brought it's product to the Bay Area. It was the birth of the San Jose Sharks. 3,000 miles away the Pittsburgh Penguins were winning the Stanley Cup the 2nd in their franchise history. The Penguins actually went back to back taking home the Cup following the 1990-91 season and obviously following the 1991-92 campaign. Now after 3 grueling series apiece in the Eastern and Western Conferences respectively the puck will drop Monday night for Game 1 in Pittsburgh. The Penguins aim for their 3rd championship overall. It would be their first since 2008-09 and the second for their superstar Sidney Crosby. Meanwhile the Sharks are looking to win their first championship in their first appearance.
