I think Asham has done well gainst Rupp in the past.Either way.I thought Asham showed against tampa what he can do if he wasn't hurt pretty much all last year.He just never got it rolling.Good signing at a good price.If Rupp decides to leave.He's a good guy,but see ya and good luck...

Great signing at a great cap hit. Unbelievable a guy like this who can handle the puck and drop the gloves is making bout a quarter mil less than somebody like Shelley. **** you Pittsburgh.

**** you Pittsburgh= LOVE you PIttsburgh??????

You would have to think that with him being hurt pretty much all of last season is a major contribution as to why he makes what he is making...It would have been interesting to see what he got on the open market.But I'm thinking not much more,and maybe a shi**ier team....We'll never know now...

Great signing by the Pens - I think Rupp just wants to play for the Hurricanes now, that is why he turned down his offer

Nice signing at a good price. Like others, would have loved to have seen him back in a Flyers jersey.

The re-signing of Asham was imperative in lieu of the Godard and/or Rupp departures.

I'm glad Shero didn't **** this one up.

Which is why I put probaly. Though from what I remeber other than the first Rupp Asham fight the rest have been pretty close, going by the fact that Rupp can step up and fight heavyweights and not lose badly I would put Rupp as a better fighter

Rupp is definitely the better fighter of the two, and might be the better player too.
