Over at the NHL’s website they’ve been previewing a team each day. Today is the Penguins’ day, so let’s go ahead and look at the content they’ve cooked up.

If nothing else it should be fun to watch youngsters like Rutger McGroarty, Ville Koivunen, Owen Pickering and maybe Harrison Brunicke develop at the NHL level this season.
We’ll have more on the three questions tomorrow, for today the Pens get in the summer spotlight on the main page.
