One thing for Jimmy Rutherford..................DONT TRADE YOUR #1 THIS YEAR!!
Anyways.......we shall see. As some have mentioned, if this was in the Western Conference then maybe not so big of deal, but the East is stacked.
And also has been stated by others, watching some of these teams like Buffalo, Carolina, New Jersey, used to be pushovers, they are so deep and fast and skilled. Not sure how the Pens are going to push forward unless they adhere to the system religiously and some of these young guys accelerate their development.
