Love the Penner trade but the defense is still the glaring issue.

Sure. Klesla is a 4D, if they want to promote him. He's nothing special, but he could handle the role. Really, they need Orlov to grow up and take the mantle. That gives you a top 6 of Alzner, Carlson, Green, Orlov, Klesla, and Hillen. That should be doable if the offense keeps putting up points (you ain't the Kings, but that's not an embarrassing corps either).

Penner is a beast. Great pickup for an immediate impact player.

Marian Gaborik to the Kings.

Pens aacquire Marcel Goc to replace Sutter, be shocked if we don't land Kesler now. Going to put him on Sids wing.

The CBJ is playing well and this was a smart move IMO. Gaborik wasn't a vitale piece to make our offense go, we play a much scrappier offense that didn't really gel with Gaborik's style.

We get a young defenseman and some picks. The CBJ needs to stop trying to bring in high-profile guys (Carter, Gaborik, etc.) and then ship them out when they don't pan out/aren't happy. From what I've read, Gaborik was happy in Cbus bur most likely wasn't going to re-sign and was an UFA after the year.

If someone wants to sign here that is a big name, then so be it. But don't force it.

CBJ was already the youngest team in the NHL, and just got younger. We just need our talent to grow and we will have something (we've been saying that for 8 years now though ).

Ryan Kesler not traded. Pooh.

Looks like trade talks with Pens and Ducks fell through.

Pens get Marcel Goc and possibly Stempniak from Calgary.




@RobRossi_Trib: To be clear, #pens feel Vancouver ownership nixed trade that would have sent Kesler to Pittsburgh.

the deadline may have passed, but that doesn't mean there won't be more deals announced.

the Erat/Forsberg deal was announced last year "after" the deadline

looks like Vanek got dealt, Kesler did not get dealt and no one can decide if Legwand got dealt or not

Van and TSN have confirmed Kesler is staying.

Other trades still popping up yes, Vanek traded but no word on where yet.

Legwand to DET.

Sounds like the price tag for Kesler was pretty steep.

Rumors were a top 9 25 and under center, tier 1 prospect, and a 1st and 2nd round pick.


Thats WAY to too much for Kesler. Not surprised no one bit on that

When Stamkos returns, Tampa is probably the best team in the Atlantic.

Watch out for them with Callahan and Stamkos.


ETA: Stamkos comes back Thursday

Sounds like VAN ownership pulled out at last second on Kesler deal. Dumbasses.

Pens had to make another move some where trading for a 3rd line C when we already had one makes no sense.

It sounds like they had a deal in place and ownership backed out late.

Pens were sending Brandon Sutter, Simon Despres/or Doumolin, and first Rd pick for Kesler.
