My point is that rest of the NHL are adding depth to their line ups getting ready for a play off push and our Penguins are really Wilkkes Barrie in disguise. Given the current injury situation there is very little Shero can do without blowing up the team. I really believe that unless Sid comes back soon , it will be tough for us to get past the first round of the playoffs. The team is really trying its best,but with 8 to 10 players out at one time it is going to be tough for us.

I wouldn’t mind seeing Umberger join the Pens,but from what I read,they would want Goligoski. Would hate to see the Pens trade him,for 1.8 million,the guy is great,logs big minutes,and got a decent plus/minus. Also read lately that the Jackets don’t want to move him.

As for Versteeg,please god no,I’ve watched the Leafs play a lot this season,and he’s nowhere near the player he was in Chicago,he isn’t worth the 3 million.

Hemsky would be a gamble,he’s often injured,and is super expensive,and apparently the Oilers are looking for a 1st round pick and prospect.

Still would love to see the Pens land either Stephen Weiss or Devon Setgouchi,however I don’t see their teams trading either player,and the Pens would have to give up a lot in return.

Headed to Toronto in 2 weeks to see the Pens play the Leafs,it will mark my first ever NHL game,and I’ll be living my childhood dream of seeing Pittsburgh play. I just wonder if there will be any new faces on the team by then.

Great read! I enjoy the blog!

And yes, I’ve said Arnott till I’m blue in the face. A Bill Guerin type deal or deals. I see no bodies leaving as well.
