Adam Gretz from Pensburgh.com: Pittsburgh features two of the top centers in the NHL but precious little cap space. With just under $5 million of cap space, that means a big time impact player is not in the cards.
On the other hand, there are some options. For one, there are some of the players who were not offered qualifying offers this week. A few of those players could be had for a discounted price. Jim Rutherford expects to target this area of the market aggressively.
Also, despite a very busy off-season, Rutherford desires to add players.
