Will Butcher would get top 5 minuets. Kris Letang as a history of injuries, and Olli Maatta is coming off an injury. In the event that one of those two get injured, he will be slid into the top 4. Derek Pulliout is a bust. There is no chance of resurrection. Same with Griffin Reinhart, Scott Laughton, Malcolm Subban, etc.
Home has nearly nothing to do with signing. Jimmy Vesey is from the Boston area, but signed with New York.
You can never have too many defensemen, as long as there are average caliber players. Assuming that the Pens make a trade for Duchene is such a big uncertainty, that the idea doesn't hold too much water.
