I completely agree with the points on Letang – but it looks like Shero is convinced with enough O you don’t need D (and look where that got us with the B’s?!).

I AM however, happy that I get to still oogle Letang in a Pens uniform…it would have been a little tough in someone else’s sweater (but I think I would have managed).

Also on that note…why does he always tuck that sweater in like an old man?! I mean, he’s completely identifiable on the ice, but I’d rather be smitten by your dashing good looks – not questioning your fashion decision.

Kunitz or Pascal for Foxy Friday. Just throwing it out there. Representing the dads.

Kunitz is foxy. I said it, I don’t even care. I’m under the Pens spell and I LOVE IT. Yeah they’ve committed all that money to these players BUT LOOK AT THOSE PLAYERS.

I can’t tell who’s more happy about Dupuis: Crosby or James Neal. Or James Neal’s hair.

Letang is getting WAY too much money for a guy who’s not all that solid defensively. I think if he weren’t playing on a team with Malkin & Crosby, his offensive numbers would be much, much lower (and then becomes just an average player offensively AND defensively). To me, he’s overrated. Sorry, Pants.

But Monchichis! Wow, that takes me back… I will never be able to look at Chris Kunitz the same way again. Spot on.

I’m a Pens hater (sorry!), but I do think that the Letang contract when he does what he’s supposed to do, is totally worth it. He’s a player that plays two way hockey and if he continues to do so I think it’s well worth the money for the Pens. I’m curious to see what the Penguins do with Fleury though after next season.

As I was doing all the Penguins cap space math last night, all I could think about was “thank god Shero traded TK to San Jose”. Shero and Jason Botterill are cap magicians, but I don’t think even they could have found $2 mil to give TK next season. (Also, GOODBYE OL’ BOY. I will miss you. Go “be a shooter” in SJ.)

$4.1 million left to share (likely) between Adams, Cooke, Bortuzzo, and Jeffrey.. it seemed impossible at times, but I think it’s actually all going to work out.
