THIRD UFA to Sign with Pens

The Pens signed Eric Godard who is said to be an "enforcer" (I hope that doesn't mean bad news about keeping Ruutu)!!

[UPDATE] Since this post, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has reported a few more details on the new player the Penguins acquired:

So it's not Ruutu this signing has implications for; it may be Laraque.

[UPDATE #2] my husband set me straight regarding Ruutu and Laraque and the signing of Godard. Ruutu is an "instigator"; Laraque and Godard are "enforcers" which is why signing Godard is more likely to affect Laraque than Ruutu (different roles, same result). THANK YOU to my husband, John, for explaining that!
