Matthew Testa, @mtesta36: Where’s Rico Fata on the worst Pens list?

Starkey: If you’re talking “Worst Penguins of the 21st Century,” Mr. Testa, he belongs in the discussion, if only because he’s Rico Fata. But he did score 21 goals in his Penguins career, which looks pretty impressive compared to, say, Zach Sill, who very nearly left Pittsburgh as Zach “Nill” in the goal-scoring department but did manage one goal (assist: Andrew Ebbett) in his 61 games here.
