Penguins Acquire Bill Guerin From New York Islanders

The Penguins have acquired veteran power forward Bill Guerin from the New York Islanders for a conditional draft pick -- starting as a 5th rounder, and going to a 4th rounder if the Penguins make the playoffs, then to (and no higher than) a 3rd rounder if the Penguins make the second round.

Guerin has 16 goals and 20 assists in 61 games this year.

Pretty low risk move by the Penguins' GM. Reaction/Analysis to follow, but for now -- with 45 minutes to the deadline -- I'm fairly sure Shero isn't finished.

More to come ....
