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

[PensPlz]

Pretty sure he actually works for the Pens

We're living in a simulation

 

[BrookswasHere44]

Tell me what else comes with Bunting

 

[Andy99]

Bunting is out and Lebrun speculating he could be part of the package.

I know there will be other pieces but he’s 1 year younger than Guentzel lol

Really getting younger there Dubas… I wanted Necas or Jarvis

 

[Jaded-Fan]

A re we really gonna have to wait? I feel like we’ll know immediately if it’s an acceptable return or not.

Players may fail here (look, every good player we acquire struggles here), but if Dubas gets two quality nhl players for Guentzel, I feel like he did his job, regardless of how they pan out.

There will be less carping here than by fans of the team who makes the trade. If the trade happens.

Fans get attached to prospects that they see drafted and then developed.

Most here are have accepted not only the trade but that we likely will not get the return some are reporting.

But there will certainly be carping by fans of both teams.

From Jake’s shakes to Bunt’s _____, what a disaster.

Tell me what else comes with Bunting

Shame and regret

Bunting is fine if you’re getting a juicy prospect or two. Pens need bodies, they aren’t playing O’Connor, Harkins, Poulin down the left side to finish the year.

 

[orby]

Bunting, prospect, pick?

Jarvis? Why not ask for Svechnikov while you’re at it.

Bunting has term, cost, and is old. He's also been a huge disappointment in Carolina.

 

[Jaded-Fan]

We will trade Jake for a small bird?

 

[PensPlz]

Bunting is 1 year younger than Guentzel. Can't call Dubas a liar.

 

[Andy99]

Signed too many years lol

He’s literally just a serviceable tweener. It’s whatever if there’s good pieces attatched

Why do you have faith in our GM?

Especially from the GM who got Seth Jarvis out of him to dump Patrick Marleau.

 

[CascadiaPenguin]

I like the name Emily, Kaplan not so much.

Kaplan is way better than Kakko.

 

[Malkinstheman]

Any trade with Carolina has to wait till tomorrow right? They need to let all the guys pass through waivers

Sounds like a Sullivan dream!

Bunt’s Cakes

 

[Gurglesons]

lol.

 

[Sideline]

Bunting better be more of a cap dump than an asset in this deal. I want that Russian Bobby Orr kid of Bunting is in the deal.

I don’t I’m just not looking for excuses to be mad, like calling 4 year pro Bunting “old”

 

[Extra Texture]

Bunting better be the cap dump and not the main piece of any trade

This, I'll take him as a throw in to make the return sweeter. He might be the kind of nasty addition we could use these days.

God help us if there are not alot of futures tacked on.

This would explain why I've never seen my neighbors carry in groceries.

He's 29 next year.

 

[Epic Neal Time]

Pretty clear Bunting is the cap dump but he's still serviceable.
