I saw him play once in South Bend. Pretty good late pick prospect. Sucks to lose him for nothing.

Why did he not want to play for Washington?

Because they are garbage?

The reasons, he said, were clear: DiPauli wants to play in the NHL. As a older player coming out of college, he has little time to sit in the minors before his number gets called. The Capitals have a glut of young forwards waiting in the wings. The Pens, as we all saw during the playoffs, are a young team that is not afraid to put rookies in big situations. He’ll likely start in the minors before becoming a bottom-six player for Pittsburgh.

Vesey sounds like a free top 10 pick based on the hype train. He's been listed as a top 15 prospect, but those lists cover multiple drafts.

I think since he's older he is far less risks and less potential. He sounds like a guy with a 50% shot at being Chris Kunitz and a 50% shot at being a mid-9 guy.

Which is worth about the tenth pick in the draft considering he's costs controlled and NHL ready.

Don't we now have a glut of young forwards who are already nhl proven. Injuries happen but he's still coming in 17th or so on our depth chart.

Pens (just won Stanley) are playing their youth > Caps (knocked out by said Pens) are pretty fixed with who they have

Never met the man. Do you think he can beat out Zach Sill or Daniel Winnick.

How many GWG did he score through the playoffs? Actually how many goals did he score?

I think actually 5 years. Won't be Ufa till he's 27. They have his rfa years and arbitration rights. Boston would have seem closer to real contention. But must have fell in love with nyc

Once the King summons you, it's hard to say goodbye.

Goodbye Boston, goodbye Toronto, goodbye Buffalo, goodbye Jersey Islanders & Pens & 1 last goodbye to Chicago.

Goodbye.

Well (frank) that wasn't hard, what took him so long to say those sad goodbyes?

Touched Stanley yet Martox? What about the Cup?

Doesn't this make the Rangers the Stanley Cup Champions? Although it was the media that turned this into a circus, the constant chattering of people on here and other boards really became nauseating. I for one am glad this sideshow is over. Also, didn't the media make a circus of Kevin Hayes last year? Nobody even talks about him anymore.

Rangers is kind of an odd fit for Vesey. Not sure he's a top 6 guy there and I thought that was important to him. Nash, Zuccarello, Kreider, Miller with 3 of them natural lw.

Nice depth signing of Di Pauli. Definitely sounds like a Pens forward with the speed and grit. Nice that he can play center, maybe he'll battle Sundqvist for that call up spot.
