Famed American investing wunderkind Warren Edward Buffett once said, "Price is what you pay. Value is what you get."
In the salary cap world of the NHL, this sentiment rings very true, especially for a team like the Pittsburgh Penguins.
With more than a third of the Penguins cap space tied up in three players—Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, and Jordan Staal—the team needs their "Big 3" to be at their very best night in and night out.
As the defending Stanley Cup Champions, it's safe to say the team has certainly received a good return on its investment so far. However, as I've watched the team play over the last few seasons, I often find myself wondering if the Penguins are getting the full bang for their buck.
