Would love if he hit UFA status and its just a rental.

Although this worries me about Kesler.

I thought that might be coming -- Dupuis being out meant they had to do something

I thought they needed help in the bottom 6. Is Goc better than Sutter?

Poor Brandon Sutter, lol. They should post observers on those 3-rivers bridges.

Oh now they are saying the Vanek post was a fake?

- PhillaBully

you wish you had a defenseman who could do that!

Pittsburgh is all in for this year, but you still have MAF in net. We know all too well what happens if he plays sub-par.

A lot will depend on the goaltending.

Homer is foaming at the mouth now probably trying to one up the pens.
