The story
The season began in grief. Head coach Bob Johnson, who had led Pittsburgh to its first Stanley Cup in 1991, died of brain cancer in November 1991. Scotty Bowman stepped behind the bench, and the Penguins played the rest of the year for 'Badger Bob'.
On the ice, Mario Lemieux was untouchable. He won the Art Ross Trophy as the league's top scorer with 131 points despite playing only 64 games, while winger Kevin Stevens finished second in NHL scoring with 123. Goaltender Tom Barrasso and a young Jaromir Jagr — whose slaloming solo goal against Chicago in the final became an instant classic — rounded out a devastating core.
The playoffs ended in a blur of dominance: Pittsburgh won its final 11 postseason games, swept the Chicago Blackhawks in the final, and Lemieux collected his second consecutive Conn Smythe Trophy — joining Bernie Parent as the only players to win it back-to-back.
