You serious RR? He said specifically in the PM that he'd play with Pietrangelo.
I am. Didn't this get sent to you?

have completed three moves today and will comment tomorrow. Or never.
Focus shifts to Ray Whitney, Michael Ryder, Derek Roy, and Stephane Robidas.
Looking for RH defense prospects, a 3rd line center, or draft picks. Looking for another 1st round pick and would make nice bundles of players above to get another.
Also if someone else cares about this stuff, I'd swap a LH defense prospect for a RH defense prospect of equal value.
Pittsburgh, PA Today was a huge day for Pittsburgh Penguins fans. Earlier this morning, they acquired Bobby Ryan from the Anaheim Ducks. As the clock struck midnight, the Penguins came to agreements on two more trades to greatly improve their club. They acquired defenseman Mark Streit from the New York Islanders, in exchange for Chris Stewart (recently acquired from St. Louis), Matt Niskanen, and their 1st round draft pick in 2013. The Penguins also received youngsters Matt Donovan and Kirill Kabanov. In a third trade, the Penguins have brought back Jaromir Jagr to Pittsburgh. Going to Dallas is prospect Scott Harrington. GM IR had this to say; "**** yeah." However, some are questioning his motives as it appears he will not be trading Joe Morrow, Olli Maatta, or Simon Despres.
When I was in J school we were shown examples of why you had to be so careful when writing headlines: "Reagan's penis mightier than sword" was the best.
Vancouver is making Alexander Edler available, if you're interested hit me up. Not really looking to move him for picks/prospects though, although I'll consider all offers.

Yes, this video was taken with a Nikon D600 potato.
Few names i'm actively shopping. Tho i'm willing to listen to others (which i reserve the right to ridicule if they are bad )
Steve Mason: Looking for a young G that needs a change of scenary? Moving for a pick/prospect or a G (tho i'd be fine with Bobrovsky/York)
Aucoin: Great veteran #5-6D for a playoff team that is UFA. Decent pick/prospect/upgrade (Aucoin + guy for better guy) will do
Prospal: Quality Top 6 veteran rental. Ideally would want a 1st or great prospect, but taking all offers
Umberger: probably the most expendable of my "core players". Won't sell him for scraps but he is very much in play for a young NHLer with upside + pick/prospect, or Umberger+ for a high-end guy
Wiz- See Umberger. Quality guy i wouldn't be upset keeping, but in play for a similar package
McElhinney/Jourdrey- UFA depth. You can never have enough depth in the postseason. Any decent offer will do
Niklas Backstrom
Matt Dumba
Torrey Mitchell
Johan Gustafsson
The Wild have acquired yesterday center Saku Koivu and goaltender Jonas Hiller from the Anaheim Ducks. In return, pending UFA Niklas Backstrom heads west, along with top prospect Matt Dumba, forward Torrey Mitchell and prospect Johan Gustafsson. The Wild are clearly making a push for the cup this year. Captain Mikko Koivu seemed really excited when he commented the news. "It's been a dream for Saku and I to play together in this league, and to do it at this point, when our team is shaping up into a real contender, is just perfect timing. It goes without saying that him and I, and everyone else in this locker room, will work the extra mile to get him a cup before he retires."
Moving Backstrom was somewhat of a surprise to everyone, but Minnesota's GM drnaud81 explained it as a strategic move. "It is saddening to part with an extremely solid goaltender and super good guy, but with his contract status and our current salary situation, it was becoming clear we wouldn't be able to re-sign him next year, especially with the cap being $6m less. We couldn't risk losing him and not being able to get another guy, which would have put too much pressure on young Hackett. Hiller is a solid keeper that will be able to get us where we want too, and for an extra year as well."
