Summary
The Pittsburgh Penguins kicked off their offseason with strategic depth moves, re-signing forward Connor Dewar and defenseman Ilya Solovyov. Dewar, a 26-year-old fourth-line fit, and his linemate Blake Lizotte have excelled at even strength and on the penalty kill. These signings, with a combined cap hit of $4.5 million over two years, avoid overpaying and keep the cap flexible for bigger acquisitions. The Penguins also have their eyes on restricted free agents like Egor Chinakhov and goalie Arturs Silovs, while letting veterans test the market. These moves set up Kyle Dubas for further heavy lifting, keeping the Penguins competitive without cap drama. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
