Ilya Mikheyev Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 I agree JR is a poor GM, but this signing isn't really a big deal. Hard working, decent depth who is a cheap call-up and will probably make it through waivers. Pens don't really have a player like him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhippy Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 So...we're maybe getting Pouliot? Maybe we can convince Johanssen (sp?) to come back as a UFA and have Sven RyJo and Pouliot back together? Correct me if I am wrong but don't we have a D prospect that played with Pouliot as well? Was it Cederholm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it Cederholm? I believe he's a very realistic trade target. Yes, Cederholm played primarily beside Pouliot as his stay at home guy for the '13-14 season... though I don't expect that will factor in much at all.

goblix Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 deal is fine as long as sestito is good with the young guys in the AHL. Overall a non factor deal other than it consumes a contract spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucks Prophet Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Not surprising, The Penguins always have a few goons on their roster. Hard to blame them, when they have star players on multiple lines that are easy targets for opponents. Crosby is the easiest target in the NHL, next to McDavid. Speaking of McDavid, he's returning today. Oilers should consider acquiring Scott, play him any time McDavid is on the ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who? What? When? Where? Why? Vote for next All Star Its also a 1 year deal, ie it expires at the end of this year, No? And two way. Would have to think he would start in the minors to get in game shape... All in all, no big deal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

austy Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 I was bummed when he came into his last Canucks camp so out of shape, the season prior he seemed to make strides (skill wise). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, his excuse was that he thought if he lost too much weight it would affect his fighting ability. He was asked to shed x many pounds and he didn't meet that. It cost him his place on the Canucks. Maybe he woke up to the changes in the game and actually lost enough weight to keep up; otherwise he will still be a defensive liability whenever he is on the ice. Either way, good luck Sam Tostito.

thundernuts Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Rumour has it the the NHL made the Penguins wait until after the All Star Game to Avoid having Sestito voted in as the Eastern Allstar Captian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
