Penguins Sign Rodrigues to One-Year Deal

It seems there are some tools you just can’t remove from your tool chest.

In the latest incarnation of David Warsofsky (signed by the black and gold on three separate occasions) the Penguins have agreed to terms with forward Evan Rodrigues on a one-year contract worth $700,000.

You remember Rodrigues (or maybe not)? After arriving at the trade deadline from Buffalo in the ill-fated Dominik Kahun swap, he skated for seven mostly nondescript games at the tail end of the regular season, tallying a single goal.

The Pens liked him so much they scratched him for each game during the qualifying round of the recent postseason before foisting him on Toronto in the Kasperi Kapanen trade.
