They gave up their first round pick for Perron. Also, I suspect many
of those fans bashing the GM would be similarly bashing him had he not spent to the cap. The Pens lot here is bad luck. What were the odds that Matta, Erhoff, Letang and Dupuis would all be lost to season ending/significant injuries. They haven't been able to put out a consistent lineup most of the season. What did people expect to happen?
