Mark Recchi and Gary Roberts signed one-year deals with the Penguins today to return for the 2007-2008 season.
When the Penguins brought Recchi back last season after trading him to the Hurricanes, I was convinced it was a bad move. The team seemed to do better after his departure and rumors that he and Crosby didn't get along couldn't help the situation. He proved me wrong though, and I'm glad that he'll be back.
I also doubted the Pens' move when they traded for Roberts at the deadline last season. But he clearly contributed to the team, especially during the playoffs. Both he and Recchi, however well they play this season, should continue to provide leadership to the younger players.
