Quote:
Crosby's injury might show the Penguins that they need to try to acquire a scorer to play with Crosby, allowing Malkin return to center on a separate line. If the Penguins want to win a Stanley Cup, that's what they are going to have to do. The past two games have showed Malkin can have a much bigger impact playing center and making things happen with the puck.
When Crosby comes back, the Penguins will get better. Now, they need to go find a top-line winger, and I would trade Jordan Staal to get one.
Trading 5+ years guarenteed of Staal for 1+ y ears of Cammalleri doesn't seem like the smartest thing to do. Staal doesn't even turn 20 until just before Frozen Fury, so I'm not sure why people are so fast to trade him because of a sophomore slump. Eric Staal had the benefit of being in the AHL his 2nd pro season after an underwhelming rookie NHL campaign. Then he busted out in his 3rd pro year.
