Just say no to Penner.
penner is a 30 goals scorer in the NHL who has upped his game twice to play key roles for stanley cup winners. Your list of names you compare him to is a joke.
Lets be fair people... yes Penner seems to be incredibly inconsisitient. I might say its very fair to say he can seem very lazy at times. I might say its very fair to question how good he is to have in your locker room if you are a young team without much leadership and alot of impressionable kids around...
but the guy can be a dominant player when hes on... and hes been on enough to play key roles for 2 cup winners already in his young career.
i think boston will be a contender for the cup... i think we have alot of leadership here to counter balance penner. i think we have a hole on our third line. i think we have plenty of cap room to take on penner's contract. i think penner is a huge upgrade over whatever other options we currently have for our third line off-winger. I think that penner could be acquired at an affordable price.
im just not sure hes the very best option to go after... thats the question... but if we got him, he is a much much much better player then that list you suggested. Lets be real about that
