Pens sign Janne Pesonen

A Finnish winger from the SM-Liga.

HockeyDB
HFBoards

Here are some videos showcasing this little, fast player. He could work out.

He has absolutely wreaked Hell on the Finnish league the past couple of years.
He is the Crosby of that league, or to an extent, anyways.

Really could be solid for this team.

First, Happy Fourth of July!

Second, he looks amazing ... Shero is more brilliant than ever ... Janne Pesonen looks like a steal ... I'm really excited now ...

In Shero I Still Trust!

I guess we are posting lines ... so if we sign him, here are mine ....

Pesonen/Crosby/Satan
Fedotenko/Malkin/Sykora
Dupuis/Staal/Kennedy
Stone/Talbot/Godard

Gonchar/Orpik
Eaton/Whitney
Letang/Gill-Scuds

*Barely altered ... I didn't like Staal on the top line and so with this kid as a new pick-up ... I could move him back to 3rd line, drop down Talbot, and feel fine ...

The 1st line is going to look a lot like the Crosby, Dupuis, and Hossa did last year because the kid's fast and Satan can score ...

@BigK: From what I heard is that Shero told Laraque, Beech, and Taffe that he wasn't going to re-sign them ... if I could only find where I saw that I would post it here ... give me some time on that ...

And you forgot Talbot on your system if Staal plays center ... *smiles*
