The Pens have really picked it up the last few games and there have been major contributions from players who have come up from the Baby Pens. On offense Letestu and Tangradi have been brought up. On defense Hutch, Engelland, and Lovejoy. All of these players have made huge contributions to our team, but what is going to happen when our team gets healthy?
We have 2 players out on defense and offense right now. Staal and Asham on offense, and Orpik and Michalek on defense. Asham will probably come back before Staal so Tangradi will be gone, but when Staal comes back I have no idea who's going to leave. Letestu has been a huge asset to our team scoring 4 goals so far this season, so we really don't want to get rid of him. But at the same time not getting rid of him will make us lose Craig Adams, which would be deeply depressing for Penguin fans!
And in our defense when Orpik and Michalek come back Hutch will be back with the Baby Pens. Which leaves us with 7 defensemen. This will probably mean that someone will be sitting out each game.
All in all these are good problems to have on a team! Since everyone is playing well our team is now very well rounded and has great depth in case of injury!
