People keep talking Leopold up, but I've never really heard that much about him except a flash across the ticker when he gets traded 4 times a year.
Haven't seem the Panthers play much season.
Must admit, still biased by how well he played in Flames Stanley Cup run (losing to TB in final) a few years ago.
And he wasn't bad for Colorado past few seasons.
But, yeah, being swapped around so much might be indicative of some flaws not obvious.

The Sun-Sentinel, a newspaper in south Florida, is reporting the Penguins have acquired defenseman Jordan Leopold from the Florida Panthers in exchange for a second-round pick in the 2010 draft, pending standard NHL approval. The Penguins have not confirmed the trade.
Hope it's true.
Now all the Pens need is another winger and they're set.
If Fleury somehow manages to find his game again.
Well they have Alexei Ponikarovsky now. That's not a bad pick-up depending how attached you were to Luca Caputi.

Caputi? Looked alright in his short stints, but didn't get much ice time and got lost in shuffle, might be good trade for Leafs as he might have more potential and end up 25-30 goal scorer. Or maybe not. But Pens need a skilled winger (maybe another if somebody in the present crew doesn't step up) — when your best scoring winger is a ~40 year old, and especially when blessed with 3 extremely gifted centermen…
