Jeff Taffe

According to Faceoff Factor (www.faceoff-factor.com), the Penguins have signed former 1st round pick of the St. Louis Blues, 30th overall in 2000 Jeff Taffe to a contract. Taffe has not lived up to the offensive potential he had when he was younger, but he is a physical, powerful foward. Standing at 6'3, 205, the 26-year-old Taffe should be a nice contributer down in WBS.

Taffe did play in 17 NHL games last year with the Phoenix Coyotes, and in 59 games in the minors Taffe had 20 goals and 20 assists.

Thanks to Faceoff Factor again

Taffe is also listed on the Penguins roster on there main site.
