The Metro needs a hard reboot

The Pittsburgh Penguins just ended a 7 game losing streak. Yes, those Penguins. Yes, 7 games. Of course, they broke the streak against the Capitals, so maybe things aren't as bad as it seems and no, wait, the Caps are only two points ahead of the Penguins, despite having two more games in hand. Those two teams aren't in last, though. That spot belongs to the Columbus Blue Jackets, who aren't any better than they have always been, despite making the most notable free agent acquisition of the offseason. The only thing that could make the first month of the season stranger in the Metro is if the Devils were in first place, or something.
