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

Hahahahaha SOO typical no answer


He is DOGSHIT

It's actually the right answer but it's pretty obvious you're not open to honest dialogue and would rather just complain about other complaining which is weird.

 

[FunkySeeFunkyDo]

These are my expectations with what we currently have:

Even-strength offense: About the same. It's unlikely we're 31st at shooting again, so just by virtue of the law of averages, guys will find the net more. That shit fluctuates year to year.

Even-strength defense: Definite improvement, especially on the blue line. This bottom six should be pretty stingy.

Power Play: About the same. I expect PP1 to be slightly better but PP2 being much worse.

Penalty Kill: Fat improvement. Eller and Smith are excellent. Little worried about the D-men there, but I expect Jarry to be better and off-set that.

Goaltending: I like the insurance if we're going with 3 NHL caliber goalies. I expect improvement from Jarry statistically, but not necessarily availability-wise. Overall it should be easier to close out games next year.

But Sid and Geno were healthy last year. They need to do that again.

 

[PensandCaps]

Kinda weird going after Eller while Erod is available. Maybe he’ll get a big deal but I seriously doubt it.

Erod is probably out of their price range.

 

[66-30-33]

Can we still do Granlund somewhere for cap space and DeSmith for Ullmark? Just over 10M in cap hit with 2 goalies.

 

[Kristopher Letang]

Erod is probably out of their price range.

Watch him get f***ed again and sign a cheap contract.

Cali is a failed state. I wouldn’t want to live there but that’s just me, I guess lol

California is an amazing place to live if you are a big time rich guy.

You're right, we will live in Dubai.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Honestly I'm surprised at the reception I've seen elsewhere from the Eller signing. It is getting praised much more on places that isn't HFPens.

Yes the right answer is shit there with your thumbs up your ass & click your heels together & wait for a miracle

 

[Freeptop]

Could be worse. At least the Pens are changing the roster a bit. Lamoriello is apparently determined to lock up a team that missed the playoffs for the long term.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Pretty much everywhere is, but yeah, there are places that are just on another level once you're rich as shit.

NYC sucks, but NYC making millions is probably real cool.

 

[Pengu]

wtf is Dubas going to to do about the cap? he'll get fleeced now that the team is over....

 

[Kristopher Letang]

I speak arabic, I can do it

 

[PensandCaps]

Watch him get f***ed again and sign a cheap contract.

Erod would certainly be better than Eller. Strong Defensively. Much better play driver.

I got a translator on my phone so I can do it too.

Trade DeSmith or Granlund

 

[Turin]

It’s more about opportunity cost. But he would be a great fit if he is 2022 Eller.

He would help the team less than Nieto or DOC? That's hard to believe.

Potentially no.

 

[Pens x]

Pens Facebook likes it? Cool. It’s good they took a break from praising Sully.

 

[PensandCaps]

Anywhere is fine for the the rich lol. Especially LA.

 

[Trade]

I’m actually super optimistic about Acciari. He’s not tall, but he’s built like a soda machine and his nose is the shape of a crescent moon.

Just seems like a hardnosed bastard

 

[Kristopher Letang]

Erod would certainly be better than Eller. Strong Defensively. Much better play driver.

And works under Sully’s system. Kinda a no brainer. Let’s see how much he gets lol

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

I think we see 2 moves with the bottom-6:

1. Either Granlund or Carter moved out for cap space
2. Either Smith or POJ swapped for a comparable forward

I think they're currently sitting with:

XXXXXX-Eller-Granlund
O'Connor-Acciari-Nieto
Carter-Nylander

I wouldn't even mind a "checking line" of Nieto-Eller-Acciari. But the other line needs massive revamping. Do not want to see Carter/Granlund/DOC as either a second checking line or as an offensive third line.

 

[66-30-33]

California is an amazing place to live if you are a big time rich guy.

If you make decent money you can live pretty cheap in Paraguay.

 

[Pengu]

Trade DeSmith or Granlund

And how do you think that trade will look? Teams will demand 1st round picks to save the pens.

 

[The Old Master]

nope! just dump desimthy
