Summary
The Penguins made a splash this week, trading for scoring winger Nick Robertson, signing veteran defenseman Trevor van Riemsdyk to an eight-million-dollar deal, and adding left-shot defenseman Declan Carlile and inconsistent-but-potential winger Andrei Kuzmenko. Assistant GM Jason Spezza defended the moves, highlighting Robertson’s pedigree, Carlile’s defensive IQ, and Kuzmenko’s power-play upside — even as the team leans on aging defense and doesn’t get younger. Spezza remains confident the coaching staff can make it work with the current roster.
