Pittsburgh Penguins Mix Things Up

Posted in Penguins, Pittsburgh on July 3rd, 2008 by RottingNation

The bad:

Ryan Malone and Gary Roberts head to Tampa Bay. Ruutu moves to Ottawa. Hossa and Conklin Desert to Detroit.

The good:

The Pens pick up Miroslav Satan and Ruslan Fedotenko, while re-signing Orpik, Malkin and Fleury among others.

Overall, bringing in Satan and Fedotenko to replace Hossa was a good move. They should really be able to shine when paired with Crosby, Malkin, or even Staal.
