So Edmonton's proposed value of an unhappy, 50-goal scorer is a overpaid, underperforming second liner, a young player who might turn into a decent third liner, and a fragile, young defenceman. My first thought on scanning Penner's stats was "wait a minute, we already have Mike Fisher!"
Throw in not having to pay Dany Heatley any more, and it's got nothing but upside(*).
