Prospect Info: Baby Pens '24-'25 Prospects Thread: Sid will play until hes 90!

[deakka]

Caught a bit of Brunickes game tonight. I know this will come as a shock but his skating is awesome. He was carrying the puck up the ice very confidently and trying to create plays. It seemed like he was being sent out every other shift almost. He has 4 points in 4 games so far so the production is nice to see but his team absolutely sucks ass.

It is as bad as we feared then?
It's a shame he couldn't play in the NHL. Playing on a trash team might lead to him trying to do too much on his own, leading to bad habits ot not using his teammates etc.

@Zirakzigil could you remove the "baby Pens" from the thread title? That's what WBS is called.

Echoing this

They're clearly not a true Penguins fan

@Zirakzigil no?

Every year the most promising young players in hockey are literally drafted to the worst NHL teams in hockey through the lotto.

Not an overriding concern.

When I first saw the years I thought it was 20 and 16 which is still pretty sus, but like almost marginal. Then I saw it was 21 and 15... Bruh.

I mean it’s not like you stop being attracted to younger people when you get old.

I thought we would be talking about young players in here.

Brunicke at ppg pace so far. 5 points in 5 games. I doubt he end up with PPG when season is over, the team seems week and are not scoring much. But maybe 45ish points are ok? It's like a 50% bump from last season

Brunicke will be a RD that can give the Pens a young player who can become a number 1 RD PP in a couple years. Pens loaded up with Rd in the draft which I really liked as Dubas addressed the total lack of prospects in the system. It will take time for this transition from the core cup guys but nice to see the plan developing.
