Pens talking to Damphousse

According to Rob Rossi at the Tribune Review Vinny Damphousse's agent confirms talk with Craig Patrick.

The 38 year old center, late of the San Jose sharks has 473 career goals in 1,518 games played. His production certainly trailed off in 03-04.

He could be a viable 2nd or 3rd line center, however, I'm slightly concerned w/ the growing geezer quotient on the Pens and it will be interesting to see if they can turn this collection of players into a cohesive unit. And whether Edzo, a second year coach, can coach a bunch of guys that he's barely older than.
