Speculation: Potential Trade Deadline Acquisition

[stepdad gaary]

If we can manage to play Columbus, Buffalo, Florida and Winnipeg in the playoffs this season, I will like our chances.

All we need is a reliable backup goalie, 2 top 6 wingers and a better 4th line and we will be set.

so you're suggesting that the only way the penguins could beat Columbus, Buffalo, Florida, or Winnipeg in a 7 games series is by acquiring a back-up goalie and 5 new forwards?

I believe the 2 statements are separate. Meaning, as constructed now we are cup contenders if we play those 4 teams. Otherwise, we need to acquire x players to be true contenders.

You probably knew that though.

That's a pretty tall order ... especially the backup goalie. Who's on your wishlist?
