GDT: Free Agency: Dr Strangedubas or How We Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Nerd

[Empoleon8771]

Rather keep the cap space for next year and signed anyone for this year.

Well that's why you're not a GM.

For all of the flaws Jarry has, going in with a shittier goalie for the sake of change was always a stupid idea.

 

[Shady Machine]

Burke was on a few hours ago saying how much Sulivan loves Jarry, so I guess I’m not surprised they kept him. Although I do think a change in scenery is what’s best for both parties at this point.

One more reason to love Sully!

 

[Icarium]

You can't just say any goalie. That's not a plan.

It's a better plan than betting on Jarry finally figuring out how to play in March and April and then giving almost two million to Nedeljkovic who has never been an NHL quality goalie except for 20 games two years behind the best defense in the league.

 

[AuroraBorealis]

There's no way we're getting EK rn right...right...not with 900k space...

Petry and Granlund out would cut it. Retention from SJ ofc too.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Hitching your final years of Sid and Geno tj a straight loser is not an option and a disgrace to the both

And again, he's still a better option than anyone else.

Jarry is a "straight loser" who's better than any other goalie available on the market.

Wrestling has made a huge resurgence as of late, it's actually not bad.

Dude wrestling today totally sucks. I was big into wrestling in the 80's and 90's. All wrestling is today is guys sitting around talking and flop and flips.

Hitching your final years of Sid and Geno tj a straight loser is not an option and a disgrace to the both

Just to go to bat for Emp even though we're at each others throats all the time (and disagree about Jarry), there are no final years. None of this shit really matters, man.

 

[Gurglesons]

Well that's why you're not a GM.

For all of the flaws Jarry has, going in with a shittier goalie for the sake of change was always a stupid idea.

If the team is not competitive why sign Jarry?

It's a limp dick move in a long line of limp dick moves over the last five years.

 

[SomeDude]

You didn't even give an option or a concrete idea. Who is this goalie available right at this moment that's better than Jarry

Let me spell it out for you because you don’t seem to understand

A n y o n e

I don’t care if they did something stupid like sign Talbot. At least you’re trying something new. Jarry has proven he cannot be relied on.

 

[wheelz87]

Why?

Just has always underwhelmed me. He’s prob gonna get a deal more than he should.. duh free agency.. Like he’d be a decent role player but I wouldn’t want him in any elevated role

 

[StaalForOne]

Well we acquired a worse back-up so. But he's younger and was good for a couple days in Carolina.

Which is a couple days more than DeSmith

 

[Epic Neal Time]

It's a better plan than betting on Jarry finally figuring out how to play in March and April and then giving almost two million to Nedeljkovic who has never been an NHL quality goalie except for 20 games two years behind the best defense in the league.

Again, I'll ask you to name a goalie that was available today or is still available that's a better option. You'd rather have Korpisalo at 5x4?

 

[ChaosAgent]

Jarry...not sure. Outside options weren't great but neither is he.

I don't think the Karlsson thing is fully over. Petry + Granlund's cap hits still match up perfectly. And we still have our 2024 1st and Pickering.
Graves is a player who is good, supposedly, so we upgraded Dumoulin in a significant way?

It's hard to hate these few days unless you were 100% committed to "fire Tristan Jarry into the Sun."

Dubas seen landing in Pittsburgh via Air Drake with a handsome long-haired Swedish man

 

[AjaxTelamon]

I think we’ve improved as a team. Our top 6 is still just as good, our 4th line is good (and fast and physical), Graves over Dumo is an overall upgrade and an improvement stylistically and we have a better backup.

Yah, and the 2nd line has a lot better balance with Smith instead of Zucker, and won't be a mess if/when Rakell is put there. PK should be improved. Team defense is better. We're faster.

Not sure why people watch wrestling when there’s the UFC.

Boxing is a joke nowdays tho. Ruined the sport smh

 

[Empoleon8771]

Letting go of a good but flawed goalie for the sake of change and not caring about the alternatives is the kind of reactionary shit loser franchises like the Flyers do.

 

[TimmyD]

Lars Eller to Pittsburgh

 

[Pens x]

Well that's why you're not a GM.

Not when Jarry’s playoff track record. He’s either been injured or played atrocious. A chance for the sake of change is overdue.

 

[Gurglesons]

we signed Eller.

I concur. Watching UFC prelims now. These women may suck but it’s real.

You're making a completely insertions argument and no front office would think like that.
