Salary Cap: 24 25 Salary Thread Crosbicles Volume Mmxxvii Retool over Time to Go for A Cup in 2026

  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

    In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server
Sully and Torts are buddies. Maybe they bring in Torts to coach our OT and SO efforts. Or maybe utilize his skills as the team's psychologist/counselor.
The only capacity I want Torts in is selling me beer and popcorn. Guys been coasting on one SC from a stacked Lighting team his entire career.

Holy hell does no one want to win the last wildcard spot.

f***ing insane that the Pens are simultaneously 2-3 games from a top 5 pick and 3-4 games away from the playoffs.

Could argue watered down league - could argue just a transitory timeline for the league.

We're right on the money for expected wins with the roster 'changes' we did (did not) make. Can't say much for the other teams (especially the Rangers).

And we are going to conveniently miss out on both.
Very true, we just have to hope until the end of the season they lose all confidence and have no fight left. It took these imbeciles far too long to realize they're pathetic. Let's hope these other teams humiliate them further so they don't forget! Maybe we can get 7th OA if that happens. Should have been a bottom three team but noooooo, had to keep that useless piece of shit Rakell for Crosby which helps no one!!!!
 
Out of the 8 left, we have two easy game.

And somehow by the schedule making gods we have the Blackhawks in back to back games.

But beyond that, Senators (playoffs), Blues (fighting for playoffs, currently in), Stars (playoffs), Devils (playoffs), Bruins (we can’t win that game and have them fall below us), Capitals (playoffs).

There aren’t many wins there and a bunch of teams we struggle to beat even when good.

For whatever reason this team hasn't done well against the Hawks in the Sid era. I think the Hawks are the team that Sid has the lowest points per game against. I remember the Hawks scored 10 goals against the Pens like 2-3 years ago and we all thought that would be Sullivan's final game
 
The Pens next 3 games are against the Sens, Blues and Stars. 3 teams that are on heaters the last few weeks. You just know the Pens are going to win 2/3 of these lol
They can beat anyone, they can lose to anyone. This is the most unlikable group the last 30 years! Hopefully their will to fight is gone! Winning does absolutely nothing but f*** us up further.

True, though this was largely the Jonathan Toews effect.

Pens can be in top 5 but man win the lottery and take Misa or get high end draft capital to add a center and RW. Dubas has to accept the fact Sully is not the coach from here and grab the AV's coach or the WB guy to work with the younger guys. Pens may need to blow it up no matter how much Dubas wants to try to stay relevant. Pedal to the metal here on a rebuild. These are enough parts here to be much better in a couple. On the block Karlsson, Rust, maybe Rakell with the right deal. Draft a top 6 center. Maybe with the trades and potential rangers pick, Dubas can walk away with top 6 center, R winger, very good center prospect in tow.
