Official Pittsburgh Penguins thread

Well orpik has declined his offer hahahaha... Gosh its amazing how getting to the cup makes everyone's worth shoot through the roof. Malone is a 3m a year player and is demanding 5! Orpik is a 3 mill a year player and demanding over 4, and Hossa claims to want to take less money to stay and gets a slight raise and declines. Man what is this team going to look like if all these players have declined our pens?

They better go out and get Nasland for around 4 million, and like 2 other wingers because we're in trouble. Not to mention another hard hitting defenseman as well. The team is falling apart here so far this is the worst case scenerio if you're a pens fan.

The Pens trade the rights to Malone and Roberts to TB for a 3rd rounder. If Malone does not sign, then they get a 4th . Not sure why Tampa wouldn't just wait 3 more days.

Haha, thanks for the pick?

The Bolts sign Malone for 7 yrs $31MM. His salary the first 2 years is 8 Mil per . Whoa..... way too much, but good for him getting it. The 4th round pick is now a 3rd. Thank you.

[3074326]

Congrats to Ryan. Thanks for the pick, TB.

Think there would be any mutual interest between Jagr and the Pens if the Rangers can't work something out? It would certainly be intriguing. With the heated series in the playoffs and the fans constant booing of Jagr, I'm not sure how much interest he'd have. It would be cool to see him win a cup with both Mario and Sid.

Pens re-sign Dupuis - 3 years ay 1.4MM per. Decent price. I've seen him pegged to get 2/year so 1.4 works fine.

[3074326]

According to a report from Sportsnet.ca, the Penguins are going old school and have made an offer to Jaromir Jagr, who helped Pittsburgh win back-to-back Cups in 1991 and 1992.

(from ESPN.com)

The Post has been told that the Bruins are preparing to present the 29-year-old winger [Hossa] with an offer in the neighborhood of $100M over 12 years.

[Brutus1]

The Laraque era is officially over: the Pens have signed E Godard to a 3 year deal.

It sucks that Hossa left, although I thought he was a hired gun from the start and since we made it to the Stanley Cup final I consider it a worth-while trade. Seen rumors where we are looking at Jagr and Naslund. I haven't heard much on the Orpik front, i'd like to keep him, just depends on how much.

Also, The Malkin Extension is official. So maybe now, I'll stop seeing the Malkin trade rumors at every hockey site I goto.

fleury filed for arb so youll see a 1-2 year deal there unless they get something done before that.

[3074326]

Orpik is a Penguin.

(Hopefully Jagr or Naslund can say the same soon)

EDIT: Ruutu is a Senator. What is it with players I like going to teams I hate?
