Penner has 2 cup rings...

So does Colin Fraser... I think its safe to say Fraser and Penner were the benefit of being on the right team... there were many better 4+ million dollar guys who would have done just as much if not more than Penner did.

Both in contract years as well.

The man knows when to step up.

He didn't even really step it up this year either. Both cup years he was less than .5ppg.

But like I said all year, someone will pay him because they see his body and his 30g potential. You'll get 30 goals out of him one year, but how about the other 3?

Well I was speaking more towards his playoff performance. He will definately get big $$ though. With LA and BOS being the last two cup winners, everyone is going to think you need a team of big/tough guys to win.

GM Steve Tambellini to address the media at the Renaissance Hotel in Pittsburgh in 15 minutes. Stay tuned for full coverage.

Evidently Howson is meeting with Nash at 3 and presser at 5... Wondering whats going on???

Good chance both CGY + VAN trade down for organizational depth. Teams with 2 2nds likely to move up: CBJ, TBL, BUF, CAR, MON, DAL.

Thank goodness you spend all day monitoring the internet and twitter. I was about to step out and mow the lawn and go for a run, you just saved me some much unnecessary and unneeded exercise, sweat and a sunburn. I will stay and wait for this sure to be ground breaking press conference

Draft pressers, nothing major. Although Howson could be asking Nash if he'd expand his list of teams or if he would reconsider staying.

Very low scoring team though. Regardless, I think he gets big $$.

Maybe Howson just finally admits to the whole league he is way over charging for Nash and just begs teams to make a fair offer so he can get this whole thing over with before he suffers his third stress related anxiety attack caused by this whole situation

I guess as usual with Tambo its uneventful which is not bad or good IMO... just neutral...

I take all draft eve talk with a grain of salt. TSN and Sportsnet are in it for the ratings. When Dregs says that he thinks Edmonton is going to draft Murray it creates a buzz and people want to know more. They are just hyping a draft where everyone and their mother knows that Nail Yakupov is going first overall.

On the bright side, the player that we draft is going to help improve our team.

Told you. Please take note next year when he has a presser the day before the draft.
