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

[Flying Dego]

are Staals like infinity stones? or Pokemon? do we get a bonus for collecting them all?

Clearly there's some secret. The Canes had all 3 at one point or 4? I dunno their parents must be Catholic.

 

[IcedCapp]

something weird is happening to the thread, like every post is reposting itself out of order???

 

[PensPlz]

We consider 28-year olds prospects.

Few more years needed to crack Sullivan's lineup.

 

[The Old Master]

We consider 28-year olds prospects.

I forgot.

PREDICTION
Carolina receives Jake Guentzel and Reilly Smith

Pittsburgh receives Michael Bunting, Martin Necas and Bradley Nadeau.

Or something close.

 

[Turin]

The issue I have is Hoglander, Kakko...these are young NHLers. Bunting is what, months younger than Guentzel. And signed for two more seasons? So if he cannot play under Sullivan, like he could not play under Brind'Amour? Then what?

You almost feel like Dubas wanted Bunting as the Guentzel replacement all along. And that sickens me.

I don’t feel that way at all unless he comes with nothing significant.

 

[Freeptop]

Bunting is scratched, but Necas is playing, so there's no chance the Pens are getting Necas back in the deal.

 

[The Great Mighty Poo]

Do they have another Staal on the payroll??

Yes, Cousin Joe Staal, Uncle Jimmy-Jack Staal with the glass eye, Grampa Ulysses S. Staal, club footed Cassidy Staal.

 

[Al Smith]

PREDICTION
Carolina receives Jake Guentzel and Reilly Smith

Pittsburgh receives Michael Bunting, Martin Necas and Bradley Nadeau.

Or something close.

So is Necas playing tonight?

Why are Smith and Necas playing?

I don't think we are getting good prospects. Carolina doesn't give them up...I'll be shocked

Smith is in the lineup.

Can guarentee Dubas holds Bunting in very high regard.
This is gonna suck when the +'s are garbage.

That would be a great deal. But then Necas and Smith would sit too?

 

[Andy99]

Yea the trade is one for one

Even if it’s a first and Bumting

PREDICTION

i wish…

 

[Honour Over Glory]

i thought we were looking for prospects

Bunting is prospect age in the Sullivan regime.

 

[Turin]

Can guarentee Dubas holds Bunting in very high regard.
This is gonna suck when the +'s are garbage.

Why didn’t he sign him instead of trading for Smith? Surely could have given him Smiths money.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Maybe we should open a third thread.

I want my own thread where I can be angry about Sullivan and the usage of Harkins and Turdwedel.

 

[DesertedPenguin]

Why are Smith and Necas playing?

Carolina still needs to win. If something happens to Necas or Smith, that portion of the deal changes.

 

[OnMyOwn]

Again, Bunting is a good player and Jake is technically a rental. I’m just hoping we get a decent prospect with him.

 

[MrBurghundy]

I want my own thread where I can be angry about Sullivan and the usage of Harkins and Turdwedel.

Isn't that every thread?

 

[OnMyOwn]

Why didn’t he sign him instead of trading for Smith? Surely could have given him Smiths money.

Because Bunting wanted to sign in Carolina?

 

[Turin]

Carolina still needs to win. If something happens to Necas or Smith, that portion of the deal changes.

Would be hot.

 

[DesertedPenguin]

Players have been removed from games midway through because of trades. It's only recently that some have been sat for trade purposes. It's not out of the question that there are guys playing tonight who will be on the move in a few hours.

Then Dubas is terrible at assessing players lol
