We aren't in desperate need of Brunicke this year. Give him a cup of coffee and then send him back to the W.
I was talking about an extra year in Juniors when he's probably ready to outplay other fringe D-men right now.I don't see how a young player getting an extra 2 weeks of practicing with guys like Letang and Karlsson along with the NHL per diem is somehow "wasting his time"
TBD. Missed the playoffs by a few points the last 2 years. Seems like every player matters.We aren't in desperate need of Brunicke this year. Give him a cup of coffee and then send him back to the W.
He might be old and senile, but even he knows no matter how bad Engvall is, he's still better than Graves ffs. Ha.Lou is 83, so maybe he's senile.
Wouldn't Pickering fit this description?Would be nice to have a young LD to potentially push Graves out of the lineup
Imo Pickering is still 1-2 years away. Don't think he can handle more than a cup of coffee this yearWouldn't Pickering fit this description?
He's also almost 82, so I aged him by a year.He might be old and senile, but even he knows no matter how bad Engvall is, he's still better than Graves ffs. Ha.
I wouldn't mind a Sprong for Pettersson type deal for Poulin. Would be nice to have a young LD to potentially push Graves out of the lineup
You think you're getting a real NHL defenseman for a guy who just passed through waivers unclaimed?I wouldn't mind a Sprong for Pettersson type deal for Poulin. Would be nice to have a young LD to potentially push Graves out of the lineup
Is puustinen likely to play 2nd or 3rd line rw and on pp2? Or where is he expected to be playing?

Elmer isn’t going anywhereI think Pens will move a player early in the season. Brunicke and Rutger M may stay up just for seeing them in a game perhaps. But I do think both will go down for cap purposes after 9 games. Ponomarev to LTIR will be the player who takes the place of Rutger M. .Nieto, Ned and Ponomarev to LTIR along with Lizette. Pens will have to move a contract at some point. My guess is Eller.
Pettersson wasn't a guarantee when he was traded. My point is to get the D version of Poulin. A 22-23 year old D that has struggled to get a spot.You think you're getting a real NHL defenseman for a guy who just passed through waivers unclaimed?
They don't need to do anything to clear the cap.A numbers game I'd say they will need to waive Glass to cover the cap.

When Lizotte comes back you won't be covering it waiving Puustinen, or Puljujarvi or simply sending down McGroarty.They don't need to do anything to clear the cap.
