Pittsburgh Penguins: Eric Fehr

Breaking the tradition of the article, Eric Fehr was actually one of the more notable buys for the Pittsburgh Penguins last offseason, not this one – if you can remember back that far. Fehr was brought to Pittsburgh from Washington to reinforce the Penguins forward corps and improve the team's physicality. He did manage either of those things. What he did do though was record his worst points total since 2007-08, when he only played limited time for the Capitals. Fortunately for the Pens, this didn't matter much, and the team rallied late in the season to win the Stanley Cup, but that journey may have been just that bit easier with the 20-25 or so more points Fehr was expected to contribute. This year, Pittsburgh have made no further additions to their squad, and have lost a handful of key contributors from the last year's season, including Ben Lovejoy, which means the current crop of talent will need to up their production in order to stay ahead of the curve. Eric Fehr will be one of those looked to, to bounce back from an unspectacular year and be this team's key addition.
