Pens cut 8 Guys tonight


More importantly, Erik Christensen was one of them.
Some would think that this could mean that Malkin may be better off than expected.
And it might make sense, but you never know. But now, the Pens have only 4 centers.


Centers: Crosby, Malkin*, Moore, Talbot, Staal
Left Wings: Ekman, Malone, LeClair, Roy, Carcillo, Stone, Pivko
Right Wings: Armstrong, Recchi, Ruutu, Ouellet, Petrovicky*
Defense: Eaton, Gonchar, Orpik, Welch, Whitney, Melichar, Scuderi, Letang, Cairns* Goaltenders: Fleury, Thibault, Sabourin

(thanks to Letsgopens.com for the list)


The Pulse of the Pens message board nation is that the Christensen cut is a message Malkin is good to go.

Here at the Pensblog we will only be sure when we see Malkin opening night.
