Hopefully the Pens can work out a deal with Cullen and hopefully he can keep his level of play up like last season.

Hearing Matt Cullen will return for 20th season after great year in PIT. Jim Rutherford wants to keep him, but Pens are to tight to cap.


Wow that's awesome. Pay the man JR.

There are ways to open up the space for Cullen. If he wants to come back, we need to make it happen.

We should be able to move Fehr if push comes to shove. Cullen is 5 times a better fit for their system

Or we could, you know, move the elephant in the room (Kunitz) and get cap for Cullen and then some.

If you trade Kunitz then who will we complain about next year? I mean come on... a 37 year old journeyman ought to be a lock on a top scoring line right?
 
One step at a time


I'd take old man Cullen back again. Hopefully a deal can be reached.

Matt Cullen choosing to play one more means that his representatives will have discussions today with the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Cullen spoke with #pens GM Jim Rutherford; he's hoping it works out in PIT but is respectful to fact that they're right up against cap

I'd be happy to have Cullen back. Veteran presence. Tight cap. I think Cullen and Rutherford would work out something.

Cullen can play with good wingers. His puck possession declined a bit in the conference and cup finals, but he is a threat in creating offensive rushes


Forgot to add in Cullen is a face off machine. The Pens need this guy back
 
Definitely a player you'd like to see return. Is he going to try to cash in one more time or do you think he'll take what the Pens offer to stay on a contender?
 
If we can get him at the right price. If he is looking for a big payday, see ya.
