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

[ZorkEnchanter]

Holy f*** Ruh is gone. I dont wanna hear any Dubas slander. That move alone gives him an A+

I bet they had to get therapy for Ole Sully.

He's going to be coaching with a blanket, crying into a stuffy by game time....

 

[Ugene Magic]

Yes.... No longer have to see, hear watch Ruhwedel in a Pens jersey!!!!!!

 

[Ryder71]

How in the f*** did Ruh get more than Zucker

Cap hit

 

[Kristopher Letang]

I’m more excited for the press conference to see Dubas. I assume a lot of “I know better than everyone else” pretentiousness?

"It’s hard to let good guys go after building relationships. Me and Sully met a couple multiple times during the past few days, we’re on the same page and we’re very happy and thrilled about the future. I believe that we have the staff and players to accomplish great things, I want to thank Pens fans for their support"

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Considering the prices that this deadline seems to have for wingers, I'd honestly look at not trading Smith now and waiting until the off-season or next deadline.

Petts, Ned and Eller it is.

 

[The Great Mighty Poo]

Perfect time for Jimbo and his bald headed doofus padawan to move in and overpay the Smith sweepstakes.

 

[pistolpete11]

Yes.... No longer have to see, hear watch Ruhwedel in a Pens jersey!!!!!!

You know he'll be a UFA this year, right?

 

[Ryder71]

Yes.... No longer have to see, hear watch Ruhwedel in a Pens jersey!!!!!!

He was far down the list as far as the problems with this team. For his salary he was solid.

 

[pensfan71]

Petts, Ned and Eller it is.

No chance we're moving Petts, not when we didn't get a single defensive prospect back

 

[Gurglesons]

Petts, Ned and Eller it is.

Pettersson to Columbus for Gudbranson, conditional 3rd and some European prospect.

 

[Ulf5]

lol Ruhwedel returned a 4th and Zucker returned a 6th?

What is happening.

Can No-Neck be our GM?

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

No chance we're moving Petts, not when we didn't get a single defensive prospect back

So claim some dork off of waivers to be a body out there. Who even cares anymore?

 

[Borgir]

So claim some dork off of waivers to be a body out there. Who even cares anymore?

Imagine trying to stay competitive?

I'm not real high on defensive prospects anyhow. Maybe the Pouliot fiasco soured me on them. Besides, they seem to take much longer in developing.

 

[Big McLargehuge]

I knew it was coming, but it still hurts. Thanks for everything, Jake.

As log as it's Bjornfoot

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

I have a funny feeling we claimed Bjornfot for some reason

 

[pensfan71]

I have a funny feeling we claimed Bjornfot for some reason

Great minds

 

[Mrs Crosby's Dryer]

Countdown to Ruhwedel Free Agency Watch 24-25 begins NOW!

 

[EVGENIMERLIN]

Considering the prices that this deadline seems to have for wingers, I'd honestly look at not trading Smith now and waiting until the off-season or next deadline.

Considering the prices at this deadline it also puts some perspective on the Jake deal

 

[TimmyD]

Pettersson to Columbus for Gudbranson, conditional 3rd and some European prospect.

We need to consult with Columbus fans on which prospect though, because then we will know it’s a good one

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Imagine trying to stay competitive?

Imagine believing this team's PR bullshit about vying for Cups since like 2019 and onward.

Serious question: is it too late to sign Kessel?

 

[Al Smith]

He was far down the list as far as the problems with this team. For his salary he was solid.

He wasn't part of the team-killing PP, but contributed meaningfully to the PK. In a salary cap league, for a cheap bottom pairing RHD, we was serviceable. It's not his fault Sully believes that our offense should run through candy-ass unscreened floaters from the likes of Ruh and Petts.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Serious question: is it too late to sign Kessel?

Think he's in Vancouver set to sign a league minimum deal or something.
