May be trying to find the right deal for a guy like sutter. It's difficult because if you trade him before you land a guy like fehr it's trouble and if you signed fehr first then you decrease your trade value and you really haven't added to depth unless you save money to sign someone else. I think they intend at looking at some Wb guys for the 4th line which I'm happy about

I understand what you are saying, but there are a number of more cost-effective options though. Santorelli, Fehr, Roy, Matthias. Surely the Pens could add one of them. We'll see what the team does, if anything. With Kessel, they have to be more efficient in roster management or it is going to crush the team's competitiveness under the weight of being too top-heavy. I think it can be done if they are smart about it. Expiring/declining assets like Sutter, Kunitz, and Lovejoy need to be replaced in UFA for cheaper if possible. And I am 100% confident Sutter can be.

Probably looking for those 1 year bargains they don't usually happen for another week or so.

It's not that his English is bad, it's that whatever was used to translate didn't do a very good job. Although his English is probably still bad


Exactly. Whoever the "reporter" is is just too lazy to make any sense of it and just copied what Babelfish spit out. I'd be surprised if he speaks any English at all.
