You know you suck when Jeffrey takes your number.
- canadianpenfan

LMAO WOOOOOOOOO!

Can't tell for sure yet, as we don't know where Morrow and Murray will end up, maybe something like:

Kunitz Crosby Duper
Morrow/Bennett Malkin Neal
Cooke Sutter Morrow/Bennett
TK Vitale Adams

Letang Despres
Orpik Martin
Murray Niskanen

Fleury
(Vokoun)

UndefEaton, Jeffrey, Bortuzzo, Engellend are all scratches.

I'm a huge Despres fan, but it's very likely going to be:

Orpik - Martin
Eaton - Letang
Murray - Niskanen

Despres/Engelland/Bortuzzo

I hope you're right. Neal/Malkin played very well with Kunitz last year and they said Morrow plays with a similar style to Kuni. Like I said, I think he is a good fit on either line. I think the question is where is Bennett the better fit?
- Killian

I think he'll fit on the third for now gives that line a real puck carrier if its needed. But i agree with other posts eventually he'll be with sid.

LMAO WOOOOOOOOO!

I meant Glass. Same thing.

Jeffrey was already #15 when Glass arrived. What this number change tells me is that Jeffrey has no respect at all from Bylsma. For me this means he's the odd man out.

Has nothing to do with Bylsma.

Jeffrey is only useful in the press box when we are healthy... he is a line filler when we have injury at centre. He has no future with the Pens

No if anything it would be Glass has no respect for Jeffery lol. Kinda weird he went with 15. 11..12...13

You think Bylsma makes decisions on jersey #'s?

very good point!

Elaborate and I might agree with you By saying just that is no different than Bartley saying "no, you're wrong"

With so many prospects, and perhaps now with a desire to re-sign Murray, are the Pens going to part with Orpik or Martin after all this summer?

Orpik, maybe

Martin, no way. He has been the Pens best defenseman this year.

I know the trade speficied a 2nd if he re-signs/Pens win two Playoff rounds, but I think the key part of that is the wins two playoff rounds component. Murray could be brought back, but I doubt it would mean any major movement.

Maybe Derek Engelland gest moved, but Orpik and Martin would be doubtful.

Did Lebrun really tweet that were all in on iginla seriously how, why

- canadianpenfan

Well, in a lot of cases the players are handed the jersey with the number by the team. KUNITZ in Anaheim is an example. He never chose #14, just handed that number to him.

Who does Murray bump to the press box on defence?

- maaddmike

I think a lot will depend on who they play... I don't think you want Murray playing against a high speed team... could be a 7 D lineup on some nights.

I was on my penguins app looking at tweets and saw it.

He must have had a mean coach.

Despres/Engelland/Bortuzzo

Completely agree. Exact pairings I would go with. Love Depres, but Eaton has earned his spot and has IMO changed the mental complection of the D corps for the better. Depres has had some of his worst games mistake-wise recently and I think everyone knows that experience trumps youth in the playoffs for HCDB and Shero. What a luxury to have in case of injury or slump. I also love the reuniting of the Eaton/Letang combo from '09.

You can't count the Pens out of anything.. including Iginla... They could still be in it if teams aren't gonna pay the top dollar for him. I ultimately see the Bruins coming with the best deal or maybe the Hawks but its just what Calgary what values... Dman or forward prospects

I think Despres is great, but I agree with all of this. UndefEaton has to stay.

Can't offer Tanger anything over 6.5 IMO.

If that's the case, they'll probably lose him. He's become a premier defenseman in the league, and he'll want to paid as such. $7M/year at maybe 6 years is probably where he starts.
