More on Roberts

I am reading on a few sites that Gary Roberts maybe on his way to the Pens now. The Pens will be giving a young player in return. I wonder who?

I hate to see him go.

RE: More on Roberts

He will only go if he chooses, if I'm not mistaken, doesn't he have a no trade clause.

LET'S GO!!!!

RE: More on Roberts

You are right he does have that.

I have read he didn't trabel with the team to Washington for the next game.

Hearing the other player involved in this maybe rookie defensemen Noah Welch.

RE: More on Roberts

What I am hearing at this point is that Roberts will only waive his No Trade clause to go to Toronto or Ottawa, 2 teams he tried to go to in the offseason. It is not likely for Roberts to except the waiving the No Trade Clause for Pittsburgh, but it could happen. I hope not though... I want him in Ottawa!

RE: More on Roberts

He just wants to be near his kids, so Pittsburgh is a lot closer than Florida to the GTA. I say he takes it.

I am hearing the Leafs are in the mix now too. They have offered two picks and a D-man.

RE: More on Roberts

TSN is reporting that he has agreed to the deal with the Pens, and that they are just waiting for him to physically sign to waive the no-trade clause.

RE: More on Roberts

It's done... Roberts is a Pen & Welch is now a Panther.

I am not sure about this trade. I liked Roberts & Welch's stats aren't that great. He has 2 pts & a +/- of 1 (in 22 games this season).
