A quiet, unassuming guy who went undrafted in the NHL but kept playing hockey and scoring some incredible goals along the way. Everyone loves a good underdog story.
So, yesterday was a fun day. Lots of things happened. The Pens organization said goodbye to Paul Martin (single tear), Blake Comeau (mark Geno's birthday, July 31, and keep sending big presents), Daniel Winnik, Steve Downie, Thomas Greiss, Jayson Megna and Taylor Chorney, who all signed elsewhere as free agents. Gone via trades are Kasperi Kapanen, Scott Harrington and Nick Spaling.
