Former Penguins prospect Kasperi Kapanen is knocking on the NHL door and the 5th best player in Toronto under 25. [PPP]
Eric Tangradi flopped in Pittsburgh but the now 28-year old veteran has found success in the AHL. [Post-Gazette]
Congrats to Eric Lindros for getting his number retired in Philly. [NHL.com]
