I guess what I was implying was they don't really have anyone that would fill that role you are talking about but they do have a few capable fighters. Take Adams... he isn't going to intimidate or deter anyone but is capable of standing up for someone. Deff an area they could improve on. I guess they need to get someone, like Rupp, with that reputation. Sill and Glass are both used on the PK and I also agree about hating to see Engel fight b/c of the rotation... that leaves.... not much.

Get rid of engy. It knocks out two birds with one stone: relieves the jam packed defensive position battle a little while also bringing in someone who is an enforcer yet also has the skill to back it up. Always been a fan of Rupp, I was more disappointed to see him go then I was talbot. True old school hockey player.

Torn ACL for Dupuis and is expected to miss the rest of the season. Look for some sort of a trade to happen to fill that void. No way the Pens go forward with Joey Vitale on the first line.

Unfortunate Dupuis is done for the season, on a freak hit from Crosby! Engelland will probably be a winger with a couple others returning, Orpik and Glass. Another come-from-behind OT win, with Neal scoring the winner 4-3
It ain't over until it's over.
