The Pittsburgh Penguins couldn’t hang on to Sergei Gonchar, nor could they offer Paul Martin the money he wanted.
What they did manage to do, however, was sign one of the most underrated defense players available today as they signed Zbynek Michalek to a 5-year, $20 million deal.
It’s a great deal for both Michalek and the Pittsburgh Penguinsteam, who acquire an awesome defenseman with great potential, for much less than would have spent on either Martin or Gonchar.
