Alex Tanguay to the Coyotes
Those of you that i talk to often know i have been begging for the Penguins to trade away Kunitz for draft picks and make an offer to Alex Tanguay who is a true scoring winger that could complement either Sid or Geno well. I was told by many that there is no way the Penguins could afford him even if they did trade Kunitz away. Well it appears that Tanguay has signed a 2-3 year contract worth between 3-4 million a year with the Coyotes. This is almost the identical contract Kunitz has, shame on Shero for not going after this guy. There is still one free agent winger out there that has skill and could come cheap and that is Maxim Afinogenov. This is a guy who has a lot of speed, and the ability to put up 70 points per season. The down side is he is very injury prone and not an extremely physical player, all that being said I still think he would be a nice fit at a price of about 1.5 million a season. that money could be cleared up by getting rid of Dupuis and Goddard.
