I like how the Penguins look going into this season

Only changes that didn't happen that I would have liked to see would be one of the following :

new goalie > get rid of fluery ( like why didn't they snatch miller ! )

trade letang ( should have did this two seasons ago when he was worth a boatload )

buy out scuderi...they draft nothing but defensemen for years but they keep signing free agent defensemen...



I think the james neal trade was awesome though, neil won't do anything in nashville and if hornquist could get 20-30 goals on nashville...imagine what he does in pitt

Why would you want to get rid of fleury?

He is an amazing goalie in regular season. And before you say playoff choker, he had nothing to do with why we lost in playoffs last year.

He was really the only reason that we made it as far as we did.

Playoff choker.

And cap hit. Pens main struggles come from having half of their cap invested in 4 players. MAF's extension will be 6-7m AAV and that's just not sustainable with malkin/crosby/letang. Someone needs to move, my guess would be that Letang and MAF are shopped this year whether they move or not.

I like Letang, but honestly if he has a monster time before All Star Break I think we could get a lot for him. His value probably dropped cuz stroke/ injury problems. If he does what he does could see a nice return on him. MAF, he had a better year last year, but I feel like he'll be the scapegoat this season if our young defense doesn't do well.
