Pens sign Craig Adams to 2 year extension. Sign Guerin to coaching contract


Yesterday the news came down that "Old Man" Billy Guerin had signed on to be the Player Development coach the Penguins organization, A role he informally had last year as he was with the baby pens. Guerin had a fairly illustrious career winning 2 Stanley Cups as well as amassing just short of a thousand total points spread out between 8 teams. He will be a great addition to the coaching staff and help develop younger players to get them ready for the next level.


Then today the news came down that the Pens had signed another Vet this time to a player contract. Craig Adams who has played an integral role on the pens for the last few seasons. Last season Adams lead the team in Short handed ice time with just over 3 minutes a game. He signed a 2 year deal worth $675,000 per year. This is the type of move that makes Ray Shero freaking brilliant. He is a cheap contributor that will play out this contract and hopefully get this team another cup.
