The Penguins went out and added some great players to an already strong roster. Up front, we added several good pieces to support the two best players in the world. On Crosby's wing, he will play with James Neal, coming off an 81 point season, as well as Alex Tanguay. Tanguay is coming off 49 points in 64 games last year, and 69 points the year previously. Playing with someone like Crosby, he should certainly be good enough for 70+ points. Our 2nd line features Malkin, as well as two excellent wingers in Kunitz and Umberger, who likewise will greatly benefit from playing with someone like Malkin. Our bottom 6 is very good, providing a good mixture of offense/toughness. Dupuis, coming off a 25 goal, 59 point season, Sutter, Downie, Cooke, Adams, and Glass. On defense, we already had a top 7-10 defensman in Kris Letang, and went out and brought in the likes of Jack Johnson, Ian White, and Jason Demers. In return, we only lost Paul Martin, who had a horrendous year, and Engelland. Safe to say our D should be way better than last years. In net, we replaced Fleury with one of the best goalies in the league, in Mikka Kiprusoff. The team in front of him is far far better than what has been playing in front of him for years, and we are confident he will maintain and exceed his high level of play.
