I could see them dealing his rights, but to Pittsburgh? Guess this means Gonchar is gone.

WHY?

Nice, hopefully Pens can get him signed he'll fit right in with them.

Good move for my Pens

From what i heard Philly couldn't sign him because hes money hungry. This should be interesting. He must be asking for a lot. That would make sense why Philly would drop him in the lap of their biggest rival.

Why couldn't they wait until the 1st? It's not like the Pens should have trouble attracting free agents.

He's a greedy bastard he is! Not like us! He's just trying to take as much money home to his family as he can instead of thinking of how those poor owners feel.

That's why I show my disregard for material wealth by signing contracts with companies who pay me the least.

I was just simply stating how hes going to be a hard sign. Not sure this is such a lock he will end up in Pittsburgh.

s*** I would have taken him with a first round pick, let alone a third round pick. Effing Pens getting better.

The salary he's asking for must be way higher than alot of teams anticipated. You don't give up another former First Rounder (Ryan Parent) for his rights if you don't think you can make a deal happen. Obviously something made Philly realize there was no way a deal was gonna happen

The reason it's only a 3rd rounder is because he may very well sign somewhere else on July 1st (few days from now) if Pittsburgh is not able to sign him. So, could be giving up a 3rd rounder for nothing.
