PENS ADD ROOKIE GOALIE

The Pittsburgh Penguins acquired goaltender Nolan Schaefer from the San Jose Sharks for a seventh-round draft pick in 2007.

What does it give the Pittsburgh Penguins
Nolan Schaefer's a quality goaltender who has played well in spot NHL duty but he won't be knocking starter Marc-Andre Fleury off perch any time soon. Expect Schaefer to report to the minors and challenge for a backup role next season.

What does it give the San Jose Sharks
Schaefer became expendable once the Sharks decided against dealing Evgeni Nabokov or Vesa Toskala. The club's number three goaltender now becomes unheralded minor-leaguer Dimitri Patzold.
