The Post Gazette is reporting the Penguins have signed goalie Ty Conklin to a 1 year $500,000 deal.
Obviously it's a little too early to tell, but we see Conklin being the #1 goalie with the Pens AHL affiliate in Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. It will likely come down to who's more solid in training camp, but if Sabourin plays as well as he did in last year's camp, he should be a lock to back up MAF. Not to mention the Pens already lost Sabourin on waivers once, and obviously saw enough promise in him to pursue him again. We don't think they'd be eager to make that mistake twice.
In ex-Penguin news, Petr Nedved will be returning to the Czech Republic next season and Ziggy Palffy will reportedly be playing for his hometown team in Slovakia. Kudos to Kulka's Korner for the story on Palffy.
