The Pittsburgh Penguins lost to the New York Rangers in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Without Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins in the playoffs I think the only people who are upset are the ones in Pittsburgh.

Thursday morning, the Penguins sent out a tweet that said, "@Discovery As of May 13, 2015, the average Pittsburgh Penguin grows to be 6'1".

While I'm not exactly sure what made the Penguins fire this tweet off to the Discovery Channel, their response was phenomenal.

"@penguins Strange. Our latest observations show no Penguin activity currently on ice in Pittsburgh. Where did they go?"

Talk about a burn. I think I just might have to watch some Discovery Channel later tonight. Well done.
