The Penguins locked up Sidney Crosby with a 5 year $45Million contract extension that keeps him in a Penguins uniform through the 2013 season and whats sure to be a minimum of 2 Stanley Cups. With the genius moves in Pittsburgh lately I may have to swing even more support of my precious Oilers away and throw it behind the Baby Pens. Not a hard decision to make when the Oilers would apparently have trouble signing me to a contract let alone players that are going to make a difference. Nice try on the Thomas Vanek thing though Kevin Lowe, at least it shows you have the balls to try something big, but I'm not certain he'd be worth 4 first round picks. Meanwhile the Pens seem to be hogging all the superstars of the next decade. Crosby, Staal, Malkin, Armstrong, Malone and plus absolutly stealing Angelo Esposito at the draft. It's actually embarrassing, and plus they had the smarts to get crazy old men like Mark Rechi and Gary Roberts to teach the young lads how the game is supposed to be played.
On the back end of things Marc Andre Fluery has the potential to be a top 10 goalie in the league, his teeth alone can stop 10 pucks a game just with the glare of the stadium lights in them. Now Sergei Gonchar has Daryl Sydor to play with him on D he'll have a little more freedom as he won't be the only player with significant experience back there. Don't get me wrong, everyone loves Bobby Scuderi, but mostly cause his name is fun to say, not for his PP QB skills. All in all, if Fluery gets his act together, and everyone else plays the way they've already shown they can the other teams in the league will be hard pressed to stop the Pens this coming season. Or they can just get rid of Gonchar and sign Sheldon Souray (I'm pretty sure they'd need to for the cap room) and then just start engraving their names on the Cup.
As for the Oilers, well, they have some solid young talent and a few decent looking draft picks, but they're a couple years and 2 or 3 major signings away from being the team they were just 2 short years ago. Of course I still blame this all on Chris Pronger and wish the plague on all the pets he may own present and future.
P.S. I'm still not changing my annual darkhorse team from the L.A. Kings, they can build a pretty solid team around Anze Kopitar and I'm positive they will...soon. Probably sooner than the Oilers get someone significant unfortunately.
