So this weekend was the start of the hockey season! Training camps started for everyone of 30 teams across the country and there are only 17 days left until the regular season starts. Every team is trying to decide which players are going to make the cut.
The Penguins have their fair share of troubles deciding who is going to be on their team. With the loss of Jordan Staal for the first few weeks of the season the Pens need to look for a new player to take his spot. Mark Letestu and Eric Tangradi seem to be the ones battling it out for it. It looks like right now that Letestu is ahead of Tangradi.
The line ups so far that have gone down are for the offense (for sure):
Dupuis Crosby Kunitz
Malkin Comrie Tangradi
Some of the combos that are possible for the last 2 lines are:
Cooke Talbot Asham (This line could be interesting because of the Cooke/Asham biting Situation that took place while Ahsam was on the Flyers. And apparently they've "hugged" it out)
Rupp Adams Letestu (But Letestu really could go anywhere. Possibly switch with Max)
We just need to buckle up for this season. It's going to get interesting.
