I think the Pens actually just got Kovalev. That is probably not a wise move. I figured no team would touch him with a ten foot pole.

You never know though, maybe he will stop being so selfish and help them out.

The Pens are in desperate need of scorers while Crosby, Kunitz, Letestu, Malkin, etc... are injured.I think it was smart considering all they had to give up was a conditional 7th round pick.

Turns into a 6 if he plays 50% of the games in the Playoffs, or the Pens make it to the 2nd round.

2-5-2 last 9 games. Blah!!

I still think he's got a little left in the tank. Maybe a good fit for a guy like Kovalev now that he has matured since last playing there. Orpik is out now too, so all they need is a body now.

He definitely came at the right price!
