Jason Botterill.

I came from an environment in Pittsburgh where, yes, we had success the past couple of years, but for numerous years, we didn’t achieve those results or we had injuries.


Not every move the Pens made was a positive. Pens going nowhere from 2010-2014. Lucked out with JR and MS replacing MJ, couple of good later round drafts 2010-11, first rounders 2010-2014 not so great. Really not much progress after Cup in 2009 till JR made some moves 2014. Was that partly on JB? Time will tell. - freeman49

Born in Edmonton. Raised in Winnipeg. Drafted by Dallas. Played 2 years in Dallas org, 3 years in Flames org. 2+ years in Buffalo org. 10 years in management in Pittsburgh org. That's 2 out of 17 years in hockey playing in Buffalo. Just how is Buffalo "home"?

GMJB Always gets his man! Can't wait for the E Kane for Doughty, and 8th overall pick for Duchene trades to happen.

He's obviously not saying it's his literal home. You gotta read between the lines.

Coming back "Home" just meant that he played here and now he's up top for the same franchise he once played for.

Good job Jammerz. Gold star, no sarcasm at all.
