So... Gonchar, who?
The Penguins may have improved even more this off-season, making a big splash in the free-agent market. Zbynek Michalek was a very steady-defenseman for the Phoenix Coyotes last season, while Paul Martin was skating the puck down his opponents' throats in New Jersey all season.

s the best way to beat them the next season? By stealing their players, of course.
Sergei Gonchar, an eight-time 50-point scoring defenseman, has called it quits in Pittsburgh and moved on to Ottawa. Averaging $5.5 million a season, this could prove to be a good signing for Ottawa. Even at a steep-price for a defenseman, Gonchar has proven time and again that he can still move the puck with the best of them, even at the age of 36. His 39 assists last season gave him his ninth time of scoring 30 assists or more in a season.

along with his star support like goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury, center Evgeni Malkin and defenseman Sergei Gonchar, can only be beaten at their own game; scoring more goals than the other team and flexing their offensive muscles at every turn. The same can be said for Ovechkin and his teammates like defenseman Mike Green and forwards Nicklas Backstrom and Alexander Semin. No one can stop these guys; or so we thought. Who do these Canadien guys think they are?
