PENS 2021 Season!!

Ottawa /Toronto again tomorrow night....who's got 50 bucks that says Murray has 2 wins to Jarrys 0? I'll take that bet....but hey, this GM knows just what he is doing he wants to win NOW! Ur, uh sorry, he said there would be some HUGE fish to land in 2 years from now.....
 
You tear it down Mario! You KNOW this.....all of it.....we have been watching this all of us. For the last two years. Horney was not your trade bait, Malkin/Tanger WERE, and they would have got you the same bag of pucks, WITHOUT albatross contract coming back. This guy has now set us back another 3 or 4 years minimum from what should have been.....I am totally vexed at this situation.....
 
We should have forfeited our 2020 1st round pick and kept this year pick.

I said it last year but nobody wanted to hear it. I would have done full rebuild. Trade Crosby, Malkin, Letang, Guentzel, Zucker, etc. The Penguins would Stock up on draft picks and prospects. Time for a rebuild. It was great run but window is closed. Crosby deserves to finish his career competing for Cups. Trade him to Colorado to play with his friend Nate for 2 1st round picks and a guy like Kadri. Then flip Kadri for more picks.

Time to accept things for what they are, take our lumps, and start competing for Cups again ASAP instead of being mediocre for years and having middle of 1st round draft picks. Be like Detroit, they’ve been shit for long time.

I agree with you mostpart but Sid is not going anywhere.....he is the franchise, he will stay so long as he wants to, and I can agree with that. He is this generations 66....the other parts....well, get what you can but I said that last year.....

I don’t want to trade Sid but I’m sure he’d love to play with his friend Nate unless you want to pry Nate from Colorado. When is his deal up? We have to unload money but we could possibly offer sheet him.

Colorado had a lot of prospects playing at the World Junior Championship.

I thought of them because I wouldn’t want to trade Crosby without doing him a real solid. I think he’d be very happy to finish career with Colorado. Play with his good buddy Nate and should be able to win another Cup or 2.
 
DK reporting.......

--DeSmith in the cage today; KK supposedly has cleared COVID protocol, but likely won't dress today
--For today, it's supposedly Sprong IN and Sheary OUT for the Craps

Surprised they benched Matheson

Edit: Not benched, according to Steigerwald he's out with a long term upper body injury.

Nice enough start, but Craps took it away from them......and worse, Wilson got his chance to get back in the game (which all about the Craps NOT playing from behind). DeSmith wasn't significantly better than Jarry.......the Malkin line no-show YTD remains in full effect....and they continue avoiding good shots in favor of low percentage passes.

this style is entering its 5th decade with the penguins... no point complaining now.
 
Matheson to IR after (supposedly) being hurt on Friday; Sully saying it's a "longer term" injury.

PHN making a big deal about how pleased Juuso Riikola is to have his old buddy KK in town, if only to have someone with whom to bullshit in Finnish. Will be interesting to see if.....for that reason, if no other.....he shows better this season than in the past.

DeSmith and Kapanen in the lineup tonight......Lafferty has been demoted to the taxi squad. Czuczman promoted to the texi squad, while Angello and Gaudreau have been demoted to W/B-S.

Ya McGuire ya freakin douche, we were all rooting for Player 8 in 2018. STFU you anything to hear yourself and fill dead air loser... that's what I got tonight....

I do not see Sid wanting to go whatsoever....and so in saying that....what about the other way around ? Hmmm? Clear space....it can happen. When we look at it opposite, what incentive does Mac have to stay in Colo? Win anything there yet? What incentive does Sid have to stay in The Burgh, win anything there yet?
Sid will stay, and go down as 66 did. Bookmark it ole Torontoeers says lol....

We trade a 1st round pick to have Kapanen play on the checking line while the top 2 lines continue to be a dumpster fire.

What has happened to Marino. Signs a nice contract and now looks awful. I mean he is a mess
It might help if Sully kept his pairing consistent, I've seen him with everyone on the D roster at this point...in saying that, either the skate sharpener needs fired or he suddenly forgot how to skate. Never seen him on his ass so much.
