‘We Have To’: Spezza Explains Plan for Young Penguins

CRANBERRY, TWP., Pa — Depending on who is counting, the Pittsburgh Penguins have somewhere between 16 and 20 forwards in training camp who could be NHL players this season.

Loads of talent, scant opportunity in the short training camp. That's not only a disadvantage for the players, but for coach Dan Muse, too. Assistant general manager Jason Spezza held the customary GM press conference to begin camp Thursday and delivered an answer full of context and expectations, shedding light on the Penguins' process.
