(KDKA) PITTSBURGH After all the uncertainty, and the back and forth discussion over whether the Pittsburgh Penguins would stay here or possibly leave town, the long wait could finally over.

KDKA sources confirm that the new arena deal is done.

KDKA’s Bob Pompeani reports that the city, the state, and the Penguins have all come to an agreement over how to build and pay for a new arena.

And that means the Pens will stay right here in Pittsburgh.

Pompeani reports that an official announcement is expected before tomorrow night's home game against the Buffalo Sabres.



just what they need, more motivation against the sabres

It will probably cost the city of Pittsburgh not the whole state.

Unless I'm mistaken the whole state was responsible for the recent new stadiums.

I was hoping Canada would get another team, they deserve it.

bring back the winnipeg team, i think they are rabid and frothing at the mouth for a team......

with that being said, KC will most likely get an expanded/relocated team considering that no rent deal

KC shouldn't get an NHL team. It will be another non-NHL market getting a new team. They need to put teams back up in Canada. That would be better for the NHL, IMO.
