Malone

[bhaw]

If TB buys out Ryan Malone, would he be a good fit on Malkin's LW?

I never caught the Malone-love Bug, but if the intention is for him to come in for the top 6, no. If you get him cheap and put him in the bottom 6 and make him part of your powerplay, I'd consider it.

He'd have to be paid like a middle tier 3rd liner because that's what he is right now.

I'm still not even sold on bringing him in for that role.

He would break his wrist signing his contract

Nooooooooooo

I'd be fine with it if he was brought in to be a 3rd liner. When healthy, he's better than Morrow was this year. 2-3 mins pk, 8 mins even strength, 2 minutes pp a game. Sounds good to me.

Who replaces him the 30 or so games he misses?

[steelershark]

Pass. Need a power forward in his prime.

Not that I think Malone is the answer, but those are hard to find.

Tangradi is 24.

You need to have a prime to be in it.

He'll be easier to replace than Crosby, i'd wager.

Vitale, cause that's the only way that guy gets on the ice.

[KG]

Sure you take Malone back at a severely reduced contract both money and term...He would be a good addition to the team...

[Sarcastic]

malone is slow and a shell of his former self. he'll fit right in.

lol that's funny man

[no name]

I guess for the right price i would take him back. 2M a year i would do it. Kenndy Sutter Malone would be a nice 3rd line.

Kennedy would get to the top of the circle, fire the puck off the glass and one of them would have just reached the red line and can continue the breakout with the rebound.

[Stevens25]

Or a direct shot at the goalies chest.
Kennedy = #1 Chest Sniper

$1M and I'm in. $1.1 and I'm out.

Malone hasn't played a near full season since his last year with the Pens. He's much slower but can still put up points. I don't think he should play anywhere but the 3rd line. Bennett should be playing along Malkin, not Malone.

Overall, I don't see this happening.

Times 10. He would be right at home.

[Kaizer]

better than iginla

Not sure the pens should add anyone with offensive skills to the third line if the plan is for Sutter to play a purely shutdown role.

Malone can play a defensive roll.
