Hossa has so far rebuffed the Penguins and is expected to fetch more on the free agent market than the $7 million a year the Penguins have reportedly offered him over five years.
Dupuis is a speedy, aggressive forechecker who played some alongside Hossa and star center Sidney Crosby when he wasn't assigned to a checking line. He had 2 goals and 10 assists in 18 regular season games and 2 goals and 5 assists in 20 playoff games for the Penguins who lost in the Stanley Cup finals to Detroit.
