It took him a while to come to grips to being traded, but Penguins forward Brandon Sutter is more at peace with the move now. The 23-year-old called the initial shock of being traded, which occurred June 22, "tough" and "disappointing," but now he says he's "really pumped about it." "It's no secret that they've got a pretty special group here," Sutter said. "I feel like I'm a part of that. I've played against this team enough. It's nice to be on the other side now." Sutter is slated to be the Pens' third-line center.
