While I'm sure the Penguins would have loved to keep him I'm sure they realized over the past two playoffs that having a guy that one dimensional as your top defenseman simply isn't going to take you to the cup. The 2009 Cup team had Gonchar, Gill, Scuderi, Sydor. This year's team had Letang and a bunch of defenseman that would have trouble cracking the Flames top 4. They would be much better off with a guy in the mould of Suter as a franchise defenseman.
