Confirmed with Link: Penner to Capitals for 4th round pick

[Mickstix]

Penner is a house!! 6'4 247!! Damn, hope he shows up MAD!!! lol He's not that kind of player, but he'll definitely help the 1st line +/-..

Obviously, for a 4th it's a steal.. Just waiting on the other shoe to drop to get us back under the cap.. McPhee could still **** this up, unfortunately..

I am loving this guy.

 

[notDkristich]

like the trade...however, he won't be able to fix the +/- woes of the 1st line by himself. I guarantee it.

 

[MoJoSauce]

Love this trade, and looking at the trade as essentially MattyP for Penner is a solid trade for this team. He brings a good locker room presence as well as the front net presence we have been missing.

Quality trade GMGM

Major League Playoff Avatars!

If they make it.

Always kinda liked Penner. Stanley Cup good luck charm. HaHa

That's a great set of first impressions from Penner. Can we call him DP?

 

[thelebaron]

I thought his name was familiar but I didnt realise it was this guy

 

[RandyHolt]

Kind of fitting getting him on Fat Stack of Pancakes Tuesday

I know some caps fan is out partying tonight.

In my yute, in my yute.

 

[msrulo]

Awesome dude

What's a yute?

Someone from Utah.

Really though it means youth

 

[usiel]

I'm down with this trade. Got some size for the walls and I believe he's a LW. Stanley Cup experience never a bad thing.

 

[RandyHolt]

He is pushing 250 easy after his daily cakes.

He is a big boy. I think Ovi got up near 240 at one time, but 247 is definitely one of our heaviest players. Maybe this lights a fire under his jumbo arse and he goes crazy to close out the year

Slow down Vinny.

Troy Brouwer is one of the best leaders in the league.

 

[Ridley Simon]

It's why 17 is my favorite number.

17 is why I have this user name. Penner is a good add to it

 

[Kegger]

Would like to really see Penner replace Brouwer in the slot on the PP1.

Would like to really see Penner replace Brouwer in the slot on the PP1.

I sincerely hope that's not a difficult decision for the coaching staff.

Wrong handedness

 

[Langway]

Would like to really see Penner replace Brouwer in the slot on the PP1.

Penner is left-handed so that's not going to happen. Maybe PP2 over Chimera as the low man with an actual tactical adjustment to bomb away from the point, set screens and crash the net. Wouldn't hold my breath on that.

Wrong handedness

This would be stupider than acquiring Arnott, who could make the Hall of Fame solely on his pp point production, and never playing him there.
