Pens Sign Defenseman Reid McNeill

To a standard three-year entry-level deal. McNeill, 20, was the Pens' sixth-round choice in the 2010 draft. He spent this season with the Barrie Colts of the OHL, and will presumably report to WB/S to begin next season. Even if he doesn't make it to the pros, organizational depth is a fairly decent outcome for a sixth-rounder, so it's good to see him sign and join the organization. (As an aside, read the comments on the linked article if you're interested in a laugh.)
