Salary Cap: '24-'25 Salary Thread: Crosbicles Volume MMXXV - Poolman and Poolparty?!?

[SomeDude]

Looking forward to the 7 trade board proposals based on a theory that Sid is sitting out Pens games because he wants traded to Colorado since he’s good to go for Canada.

"Saw on X that Mac and Sid were snuggling in the lockerroom and drawing pictures of themselves lifting the cup in an Avs jersey. He wants to win a cup again.

Sid to Avs for Ritchie + 2nd + Calvin de Haan?"

Kolyachonok had a lot of potential. Didn't get the greatest treatment/usage by the Yotes/Mammoth. Confidence is probably low. Welcome to the Penguins. Sully will fix you.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Hopefully Dubas isn't just collecting younger guys without the all important "tell Sullivan to actually f***ing coach and play them or he's fired" part.

 

[Pancakes]

I'm shocked that Sullivan has Kreider and Larkin rotating on a line at practice, suggesting the possibility that Kreider could be a scratch.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

It's insane that Kreider, Trocheck and Nelson are even there over Tage Thompson and Cole Caufield.

 

[SEALBound]

USA's biggest challenge is, quite frankly, whether or not the players have the short-term, quick ability to gel well enough to overcome Sullivan's hindrances.

Surprised Robertson was left off too even though he's having an off year.

It's not enough time for Sullivan to fully establish stick-to-itveness but he's gonna try his best.

I thought Nelson over Robertson was foolish. Similar to leaving Rakell off Sweden.

I’m not an xGF truther but I suppose it’s better than having poor analytics

We’ll finish stripping him of all confidence / flashiness / creativity and then ship him off somewhere to develop into a steady puck moving #4

It would be really nice if Sullivan repeated what Bylsma did at the 2014 Olympics. Let him embarrass himself infront of the whole world

It'd be even better if he did that while being the head coach of a different team.

I'm convinced that Sullivan could beat the shit out of Sid on the bench and he'd continue coaching the Pens. So that's a lost cause

Nah, Sid's the top of the food chain for sure. By miles. I think Dubas is higher than Sullivan too, after the way FSG dropped everything and threw themselves prostrate at his feet.

The issue is Dubas is also enamored with Sullivan, so if he's ever replaced, it'll be that begrudging, tearful goodbye that makes everyone roll their eyes so hard they get vertigo. Hopefully that happens this spring.

by the time we're done with him the only puck moving he'll be doing will be in a warehouse.

Too young for Sullivan …lol

It's insane that Kreider, Trocheck and Nelson are even there over Tage Thompson and Cole Caufield.

If Kreider fails a drug test and when Trocheck fails an IQ test, they'll get their chance
