These Penguins do their thing on the ice in downtown Pittsburgh, not the Antarctic. The Lemieux Group owns and operates the Pittsburgh Penguins professional hockey franchise. The team has represented the Steel City in the National Hockey League since 1967 and boasts back-to-back Stanley Cup championships in 1991 and 1992. The team won a third title in 2009. Popular through good times and bad, fans root for the Pens at Pittsburgh's Mellon Arena, better known to locals as "The Igloo." Legendary forward Mario Lemieux, who played for Pittsburgh during the 1990s, has controlled the franchise since 1999.
