Eddy Spaghetti Penguins Blog

We’re just going to come out and say it, pay attention to The Pensblog when it comes to actual rumors. Reasons why:

- They don’t shoot their mouths off every time somethings happens or get all rock cock for every free agent or trade possibility.

- They’re the biggest Penguins blog on the internet, which counts for something. If someone who knows something wants to get it out to the biggest audience, they are where to go.

- Like the Spanish Inquisition, nobody suspects the blog that advocates phone crashing local sports shows and has taken up 3% of the entire internet’s bandwidth with pictures of men kissing to have actual information.

To wit: a few days ago, tPB mentions getting behind the notion that ol’ Double J could come back to Pittsburgh for one last roll of the dice. Today, the rumor mill sez Jags could head back to the ‘Burgh for a one-year incentive-riddled deal. Interesting.

Of course, the biggest winner of that deal would be Petr Sykora since his deadbeat landlord would be back in town maybe he could get off his ass and take care of the fucking ants. Jesus.

ALSO:

• Dupuis gets 3 years, 1.4 mil per. Half-Season Eaton gets 2 years, 1 mil per which is an absolute steal if he goes even one of them without serious injury OR if he goes half a season without he’s mouth watering trade bait. Shero gets a Spicy Chicken sandwich from Wendy’s for 5 min, .45 per. It was originally asking for $5 deal, declined an offer from Kevin Lowe for $35 million and a faberge egg.

• Hitting the dusty trail is Conklin who will learn to do The Flop alongside Chris Osgood in Detroit for $770,000. Call me nuts but I figured he could at LEAST get a mil. Maybe he takes the discount to possibly start on ballin’ team.

• Eddy Spaghetti gains a few more reasons to make the trip to Tampa next season as Malone, Roberts and Adam Hall all join Michel Oullet with Barry Melrose’s new operation.

• Oh. And Malkin agrees in principal to Sid Contract Lite. 5 yrs, 8.7 mil per. Doesn’t count against cap until next season. If you doubt how important Crosby signing that deal after an MVP season is, you should probably stop breathing.

STILL TO COME… Hossa! Orpik! Ruutu! Big George! Naslund!
