Tomas Tatar would make a great addition to the Pittsburgh Penguins this year.

Tomas Tatar had a brilliant 2022-23 season with the New Jersey Devils. He reached the 20-goal plateau and helped them become one of the most surprising teams in the league.

The cool thing about Tatar is that he can play on multiple different lines. He had success on New Jersey’s third line and he also found time with Nico Hischier or Jack Hughes in their top six.

If he came to the Pittsburgh Penguins, he could find himself in a similar situation. You’d think that he’d have some time on the third line but also see minutes with both Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin.

He is also someone that could help the team on the power play as they try to put together a strong second unit. We know their top group is lethal but the second group could be something too if they added a scorer like Tatar.

Their forward depth was challenged at the end of last season and someone like Tatar could really help them fix that.
