Free Agent Would Bring Missing Element To Penguins
The Pittsburgh Penguins and Kyle Dubas are still out there looking for new players to join their team. They added a lot of talent over the summer, but reportedly, they are not done.
Pens Looking for More
The Penguins have apparently shown interest in forward Tomas Tatar.
Tatar is one of the best remaining free agents on the market and could be a valuable addition to the Penguins. He has scored 20 or more goals six times in his career, including last season when he tallied 48 points with New Jersey.
Reinforcing the Bottom Six
The Pens' bottom-six was not very good last season. The third line, consisting of McGinn, Carter, and Kapanen, was the second-worst line in the NHL.
According to a report, among the players who played together for at least 150 minutes of ice time, their goals per 60 minutes were 1.97, while their goals against were 3.33.
Dubas has already signed Lars Eller, Rem Pitlick, Noel Acciari, and Matt Nieto to upgrade that area. Adding Tatar to that list wouldn't hurt.
