GDT: Pens 2024 Trade Deadline Thread: Jake Shake Talk here

[Icarium]

Bunting will try do the obvious thing - screening the goalie for a few games then Sully will teach him that only Carter is allowed to do that in our team.

 

[GilbertSeinfeld]

Bunting will be the guy who saves the power play, and, in turn, Reirden's job.

 

[Jaded-Fan]

Dubas to Sully: You can't play Ruh next year.

 

[SEALBound]

I mean, that's exactly where he should be.

Not to get too cute here, but he's Hornqvist-lite in a sense.

He'll also crash the crease for rebounds, when's the last time one of the pecker heads tried that?

 

[Trade]

Did I really read a 2027 draft pick coming back?

Not that I mind. You make that trade every day of the week.

But that is about as far down the road that a team could reasonably trade away futures. I have never seen a trade with futures more years away.

This is a chess move by GMKD. The 2027 4th round is noted to be incredibly deep.

 

[SEALBound]

I like that move for them.

Lolz at Vancouver striking out twice. Smith maybe though?

 

[Malkinstheman]

Lmao get rekt JR. Ended up getting nothing at the end

 

[Kristopher Letang]

The good news is that we might win a Cup before Hfboards devs fix their website.

I see more Kunitz-lite then Hornqvist-lite, but a reasonable comparison.

We can dream

"May we interest you in a slightly used Reilly Smith?"

 

[OnMyOwn]

I like that move for them.

I mean if we could turn around and sell him smith, that would be awesome.

 

[SEALBound]

That's much more fair actually.

 

[pensfan71]

Is he reliable?

That's much more fair actually.

Their stats the 3 seasons prior to coming here are VERY similar

 

[JTG]

Koivunen reminds me, and people won't like this, of Granlund.

Minnesota Granlund was awesome.

 

[Rave7215]

you know what, why not? nothing about the power play works anyway, so might as well try the new toy.

Bunting has more PP goals this year than anyone on the Penguins not named Crosby. It was logical he'd be put there immediately since he does what most of the Pens don't do, go to the net and cause chaos.

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

@ Vancouver

 

[The Great Mighty Poo]

That's much more fair actually.

He's style is very Kunitz, but he does love yapping every shift like Horny.

 

[Kristopher Letang]

Someone go check on JR lol

Now that would be something if they can work that out in the next 2 hours or so.

KD wake up and call Blake, offer him Jarry

 

[spcastlemagic]

2018-2024 should be known as the Chad Ruhwedl era - six years in a row of never having enough depth to bump him off the roster. What a wild time to be a Pens fan.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Screw the Canucks and screw their fans

 

[The Great Mighty Poo]

Someone go check on JR lol

Shhhhhhhhhh, he's sleeping, he's old people.
