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

[Come on]

Joe Thornton hasn't signed yet

 

[DesertedPenguin]

Again it would be par for the course. Would you expect anything different?

Dreaming up nonsensical bad deals is an interesting coping mechanism.

It's all I have at this point.

 

[Coastal Kev]

So what's the trade?????? I'm perplexed

 

[Empoleon8771]

Fun fact about Joe Morrow: the 3rd rounder they got in addition to Brendan Morrow was the pick used to take Guentzel.

Would be funny if they ended up trading Guentzel for another Morrow 11 years later

Not done yet.

 

[EVGENIMERLIN]

Just another piece of Shero's Puck Moving Defensemen as our heart and soul paradigm.

I remember when we drafted Olli Maatta Pierre said “Morrow, Harrington, Pouliot and now Maatta Pittsburgh is going to be Defense U”

I thought our D was going to be loaded for years…

And that pick cascaded from the Lindros trade

 

[McGroarty2]

If two pieces are Morrow and Ponomarev, I could definitely live with that. Would like to add a pick since this team has a peanut allergy against draft picks. And I still f^%$ing hate Michael Bunting.

But that would not be bad at all.

Both seem like decent prospects from what I've read.

We should never draft d men apparently

 

[Jaded-Fan]

Apparently the Pens scratched their entire team in anticipation for this trade.

None of them showed up to the game tonight.

 

[Headshot77]

Guentzel will be fine. Carrowinds is better than Kennywood anyway.

 

[Turin]

You know the coaching is solid when the roster looks like they’re in shambles because one guy was dealt. Very focused.

 

[Al Smith]

At least Graves gave Wilson a whack in the face and some stitches.

 

[Wattsburgh]

This is why I didn’t want the Penguins to trade. Because they are worse at it than they are playing Hockey.

 

[pensfan71]

So we are f***ed

 

[WheresRamziAbid]

I thought Joe Morrow was going to be a stud D man

There was a wild string of overhyped D men here huh.

Welch
Morrow
Pouliot
Harrington

and there more im forgetting

 

[DesertedPenguin]

 

[Empoleon8771]

That is not encouraging from Rossi.

At this point, my guess is Bunting, Morrow, Ponomarev and a 2024 2nd that can turn into a 1st with playoff success for Guentzel, something in that neighborhood. If that 1st was guaranteed, I'd be pretty happy (very similar to my Brisson, Cataford and 1st hope), but it's a bit meh as a conditional 1st.

I thought Carl Sneep was the real deal. Bort has had a decent career for a 4th or 5th round pick or whatever he was.

 

[metalan2]

Jarry wil for sure finish with below. 900 save percentage this season. Dude is beyond abysmal.

Had Dumoulin too correct?

 

[Bishop7979]

We are screwed

I think Rossi knows as much as we do. Word salad from an ice cream man.

It wasn’t encouraging the moment Kyle Dubas was in charge of making this trade.
