Jordan Staal’s injury setback is being called “pretty good news.”
Get a feel for the Penguins’ roster, both at the NHL level and the reserve/prospect level. All players who are signed are listed.
Updated with new numbers, as per the Penguins team site.
Penguins center Jordan Staal has suffered a few setbacks in his injured right foot, potentially preventing him from starting training camp on time.
After over a year in Pittsburgh and one Stanley Cup Championship with the team, veteran winger Bill Guerin has been informed that the Penguins no longer are interested in his services.
Bill Guerin isn’t the only former 30-plus goal scorer who wants to play in Pittsburgh during the 2010-11 season.
It might not be what Pittsburgh Penguin fans want to hear, but general manager Ray Shero appears to be channeling a Philadelphia Flyers legend.
Could Evgeni Malkin find himself moving to the wing to accomodate Jordan Staal as second line center?
Keep track of all Penguin-related roster movement (signings, trades, promotions, demotions, and more) throughout the offseason, training camp, the regular season, and the playoffs.
Update: Pens sign forward Arron Asham
Instead of signing a one-dimensional forward to fill a scoring role, Penguins general manager Ray Shero signed a gritty, energetic winger to fill an agitating role.
The Pittsburgh Penguins have named Alain Nasreddine assistant coach with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton of the American Hockey League, it was announced by executive vice president and general manager Ray Shero.
An additional 400 tickets can be scratched off the total available to the general public for the 2011 Winter Classic.
Possibly more note-worthy than the nullification of the Ilya Kovalchuk/New Jersey Devils contract is news that the NHL is looking into other similar contracts approved by the league in the past.
After hearing the arguments from NHL and NHLPA last week, the system arbitrator Richard Bloch upheld the rejection of Kovalchuk’s contract. He’s now a free agent.

Various potential modifications to the game of hockey will be tested during the NHL research and development camp 2010 on August 18.-19. Here are the specifics.
For years, the Penguins have suffered the agonizing fate of having two of the world’s best and most exciting centers on their roster, but will things change this year?
More than one month into free agency, veteran forward Bill Guerin remains unsigned. Could this translate into a return to Pittsburgh?
I consider myself a “call ‘em like I see ‘em” kind of guy, so now that Bissonnette is using his departure from Twitter as a way to raise money for the homeless, I feel the need to write about that, too.
Two quick interviews with two tough characters – Eric Tangradi and Zach Sill.
Today’s press conference could very well reveal the details.
Mike “Doc” Emrick of NBC and Versus will emcee the event, which will be broadcast live on the NHL Network.
“John Barbero, the public address announcer whose melodious voice and uncanny sense of timing made him an integral part of Pittsburgh Penguins hockey for four decades, passed away Monday evening. He was 65. ”
Pittsburgh has lost an irreplacable legend.
As if challenging the legality of the 17-year contract between the New Jersey Devils and winger Ilya Kovalchuk wasn’t enough, NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman reportedly is considering fining the team and player.
When Paul Bissonnette inexplicably was placed on waivers last season, few understood why a team apparently intent on playing physical hockey would simply let a tough guy go for nothing.
It appears answers are beginning to surface.
