The Shero fails to sign Gonchar or Hamhuis and then both Eaton and Leopold walk... will that be a notch against Shero as a GM?  

There has already been some rumblings that make it sound like Eaton's agent isn't real happy that the Pens are using Eaton as basically as a security blanket, someone they will deal with once the big fish are done with...  it kind of gives me the feeling that he may walk.  

What if the Pens don't sign a upper tier D-man and basically go with what they have and some throw ins(players in the 1 million dollar range) to complete the defense.  

Then what if all that happens, and they don't sign an upper tier forward?
