The 4th of July (DAY 160)

Just another day here and things are really starting to heat up out there. Nothing I can talk about on here but… Unfortunately this morning show routine has got me dead tired by 10PM now. I have off tomorrow and will post a long one then as you will have to wait one more day to find out what I got cooking. I recorded the first hour of my show today and will try to somehow post that as well.

Everyone have a HAPPY 4th of JULY as the only day in the July that matters to me this year is the one which I safely land in Germany. Take care.

Have a wonderful 4th of July Rob.
I saw this "wrap up" on the net about the Pens standings to date and thought it would interest you.

Here's how the Penguins' free-agent picture is shaping up so far:

LOSSES:

Forward Marian Hossa signed a one-year contract with the Detroit Red Wings for $7.45 million.

Forward Jarkko Ruutu signed with the Ottawa Senators for three years and a reported $3.9 million on Wednesday.

Forward Georges Laraque signed a three-year contract with the Montreal Canadiens for a reported $4.5 million on Thursday.

Backup goaltender Ty Conklin jumped to Detroit and signed a one-year deal on Tuesday.

Upper St. Clair native Ryan Malone and Gary Roberts signed with the Tampa Bay Lightning after Tampa acquired their negotiating rights in exchange for a third-round draft pick.

Forward Adam Hall also signed with the Lightning.


SIGNINGS:

Center Evgeni Malkin signed a five-year contract extension that will begin in the 2009-10 season for a total of $43.5 million.

Goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury signed a seven-year, $35 million contract extension.

Former New York Islanders forward Ruslan Fedotenko signed a one-year contract Thursday. He scored 33 points on 16 goals and 17 assists with the Islanders last season.

Former New York Islanders forward Miroslav Satan signed a one-year contract Thursday. He scored 41 points on 16 goals and 25 assists with the Islanders last season.

Defenseman Brooks Orpik signed a six-year contract to stay with Pittsburgh late Wednesday afternoon.

Also on Tuesday, the Pens re-signed defenseman Mark Eaton to a two-year deal and signed former Calgary Flames forward Eric Godard to a three-year contract.
