Far from being someone who's past his prime, I think that Lemieux might be able to bring the team leadership and scoring that's been sorely lacking for the last, oh, I don't know... *5* years or so... *Update:* According to the official Penguins site, Mario released a statement which read:

bq. "I am not considering selling my interest in the Pittsburgh Penguins.

bq. "As I said to our season ticket holders last week, I have not decided whether I will play in 2003-04. However, if I do play, it will be for the Pittsburgh Penguins."
