The Pens are allegedly one of the team interested, but I think it's a stretch at this point.
1) He turned down $85M/10 years from Minnesota. What are the chances he re-signs here?
2) Given that, how do you give up another decent prospect and 1st round pick (probably what it's going to cost) for a few months of him
3) Even this season, he's at $6.3M against the cap, not sure how they fit that once Gonch and Whitney return.
4) He'd be hurt on the plan from Minnesota to Pittsburgh.
So the answer is....sure why the hell not.
