What is up in Pittsburgh if Staal and now Letang want out so badly. - Alexzanki
Staal didn't want to play third fiddle; Letang wants 8 million. It's not hard. |

I laugh when a fan from a perennial loser like the Panthers or Sabres makes a comment about Crosby, when they would be first in line to buy his jersey if he was on their team. - cap1681
Hey I don't hate the skill of the player but doesn't mean I have to like or respect that player. I like everything thing about stamkos even though he plays for my teams biggest rival. I respect him and other super stars like him. Crosby I have no respect other then his skill. |

Because no other team has done that before. Penguins had 4 bad seasons, because of financial problems and an aging arena. |

If you guys go to 8 million, you have some problems. You will be paying three players close to the same money as teams are paying their roster |

They have zero cap room and 17 guys signed. So even if they buyout 2 of Booth Ballard or Lou they will then have 8.5-10 mill left to sign another 8 guys. Yup. They are going to fit Vinny into it! |

Even when they use both buyouts they will still not have room. There is still a roster to fill out. - Iggysbff

Booth is hurt and cannot be bought out, he will go on LTIR and Gillman will work his magic |

It's going to be tighter than you think. If they keep Booth they will have to make a few moves with current players, dumping some salary in order to bring in another high end contract.

LOL @ perennial loser statement. Didn't the Penguins finish in last place, IN THE ENTIRE LEAGUE, 4 times in the past 12 seasons? |

What you're missing here is that Van is going to trade Luongo, for the remaining 8 guys. and the team getting luongo is going to take back the cap hit for all 8 guys |

He is, but if they spend near the cap and Booth comes off LTIR next year they are in trouble. |

Just so happens it was an 18 year old phenom with tremendous marketing value for a team in financial trouble. |

After Canucks use they buy outs they have easy option to fill out the roster...
Defence
Yann Sauve - will get a strong look at
Frank Corrado - Replaced Booth in a heartbeat -- already done
Offence
Jordan Schroeder - played most of last year, replaces Booth
Nicklas Jensen - Replaces Raymond
Brendan Gaunce replaced Roy
This is not Rocket science.
Also, I do not think they are in on Vinny as I believe he has a reputation with Torts. But it is not that they are hamstrung by dollars |

Yes, when you can't generate revenue in an old arena (luxury boxes, etc.), you don't have money to spend on your roster, especially in the pre lockout/salary cap era. |
