Is that a rule ? I think Murray will break it. Droin when back last year in a much stronger draft.

Never said it was a rule but when I mentioned kids aren't ready I was slammed by a certain few on here that told me if you go in the top 3, you are ready to play. So i guess i'm wrong and they are right.

Most he is worth is 5 for 5 . He will benefit from a weak UFA class and some GM trying to make his mark .
- Maximum Signal

He could very well end up re-signing in Tampa. That's a good situation for him, despite the way this season ended.

Most GM's in the league find ways to do it.

I'm not sure I agree that most gms find a way to spend 8% of their cap on a 3rd liner long-term.

Those people were incorrect.

You were slammed by the impatient few that don't get it. Ted and Tim do not believe in rushing kids into the NHL.

I don't think he's a 3rd liner and if you look back, the Pens always find a way to make it work as do the Flyers and Rangers. Why the Rangers wanted St. Louis over Callahan I don't know, it's not like them to NOT pay a player.

Callahan isn't a 3rd liner and ST.Louis won't get them a cup.

And Callahan would have got them a cup? He is doing much better than Callahan's zero points in the playoffs

Callahan is a fringe 2nd liner who will be a 3rd liner in no time . With his style of play the body will start to break down soon

Say in the Blackhawks he'd probably be on the 3rd line.

Pens go more for rentals than signing guys to peak ufa contracts, and the flyers and rangers are perennial Conference Finals hopefuls. Rangers might have a shot this year, but they decided Callahan wasn't worth the scratch, of course.

If Callahan was willing to sign a 3 year deal here, I'd welcome him with open arms. However, the Sabres aren't Detroit, with the ability to convince players to do that.

Self-quote: but is there a gm more overrated in the league than Shero? Crosby and Malkin were both no-brainers, but what has he done other than those two? Pens always seem to have the same weaknesses, and for all the NBC slobber they have on them, they only have the one cup to show for it.
