Eklund: Vokoun Out 3 To 6 Months, Pens Interested In Bryz?

...will undoubtedly lead Shero to look for a backup who would be capable of taking over as the #1 if Fleury falters.

This will perk up the rumors of Ilya Bryzgalov heading to Pittsburgh
- Eklund

These 2 things don't really go together, "Bryzgalov" and "capable." Then again, MAF has been so outstanding in the playoffs the last 2 seasons...

is it too cold in Pittsburgh for bryzgalov?

Bryz deserves another chance away from the goalie graveyard that is philly...the pens though, not that great defensively

Johan Hedberg is available isn't he? or did the NYR sign him?
He'd be capable of shouldering starting minutes (like when Brodeur went down) and is way less of a head case then Bryz!

Pens will be better defensively this year. They hired d-minded Jacques Martin as an assistant coach, and brought in one of the better stay at home defensemen in Rob Scuderi.

What's the fun in that? Imagine watching the Pens implode with Bryzgalov?

So Bryz to the Penguins next week?

I really don't think this rumor has any validity at this point in the season. It is WAY too early. Plus, Fleury has proven himself to be a very capable goaltender in the regular season. It has been reported that Zatkoff is going to get his chance to prove himself on the NHL level. I think, if anything, when it gets closer to the trade deadline, and the post season, you will see Pittsburgh's interest in a goalie ramp up. I think you might see Shero make a play for Ryan Miller or another starter as an upgrade to Zatkoff and Post Season Fleury.

Jonas Hiller for Brooks Orpik. The Ducks will probably have to take back more salary because the Pens are against the cap.

Sabres, this is your chance, make your move!

What, you want them to sign Bryzgalov???

Penguins don't have the cap space to add Miller. Would be cool to see him in a Pens sweater, but it's not happening.

Poulin and De Haan for Miller? Maybe at the trade deadline?

Halak or Elliot from St. Louis...(for the right price). St Louis is dying to bring up their young stug goalie to back-up who they leave behind.

I wouldn't do that! Poulin has the potential to be our next DiPietro!

Forgot about that. I was just talking with a buddy on lunch who said the only way we trade Miller is if a good team who really believes they have to win a cup now loses their top goalie. And that doesn't happen much.

being that brent johnson and rick dipietro are both free agents, i think we should have a round 2....

That was a great day in Islander history.

True. We need to give Poulin a chance

dipetrto could actually be an interesting signing for like 600k

Fleury is so far from his all-star days that Vokoun being out is seen as a real crisis. That said, a full season of Crosby and Malkin will guarantee this team a top 3 finish.

Key word: interesting
Not to be confused with: good, smart, effective, significant

He's so far been pretty consistent in the regular season. I predict he'll put up decent numbers, with Pitts offense enough to take their division.

Clemmensen on waivers.
