For those of you not in western Canada, you may not yet be aware of what a waste of a season the Oilers' Dustin Penner has been having so far. With four points through 16 games and a pair of healthy scratches in his last two, Penner-- who famously came to Edmonton as a restricted free agent, when Kevin Lowe gave him a somewhat insane five year $21.25M offer sheet, which Anaheim couldn't, or wouldn't, match-- isn't exactly living up to the expectations of his hefty contract. And, uh... "pleased" isn't exactly the word I'd use to describe coach Craig MacTavish's feelings about this. Um... "encouraging" probably doesn't quite fit either...
