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

[Extra Texture]

oof

That was hard to watch.

If he actually believes in any world where we can “get things turned around” it’s time to start piping up and saying so to ownership.

I think of Las Vegas and Pittsburgh being the two ends of the franchise loyalty to players spectrum. Knowing how things work, I almost guarantee that Jake has earned enough points from the organization that they asked for his consent to be traded. In Vegas, they trade players casually with their morning croissant and coffee and without a second thought.

Who won a more recent Cup?

Hmm...

 

[BrookswasHere44]

I've been checked out since the Caps scored their 3rd goal. Can somebody give me a tldr?

Yes. You missed nothing except 3 more goals

 

[Turin]

Yeah it will be Morrow, another prospect and a 2nd. Either a bit low or about in line with what I was expecting depending on the prospect.

If it's Blake, I'm totally good. Someone like Suzuki? Eh, it's fine.

Nikishin and Morrow let’s gooooo future Lidstrom-Rafalski

 

[MrBurghundy]

Nice, glad I didn't waste my time then.

Don't know why, just not that crazy about Suzuki to be honest
I'd prefer Nadeau, Blake or Koivunen to Suzuki

I mean Bunting, 2 prospects and a 2nd is damn good for a rental.

 

[Turin]

Obviously depends on the prospects but yea, that’s as much or more as any rental has gotten in recent history

 

[Ryder71]

I hope it's Blake

Madden speaks! He finished up eating his wings at Cheerleaders to give his opinion.

He's a brilliant man, a man to respect, a man to FEAR!!!!!

 

[Flying Dego]

Now I'm listening, Madden is in the game!

 

[Turin]

Somehow all the Pittsburgh media guys and somehow JFresh have an idea of what it is but are apparently legally barred from saying anything meaningful

Hmm...

I'd still rather run things the way we do than the way Vegas runs their organization. The Penguins built multiple dynasties. It remains to be seen if the Vegas way works long term or is more of a flash in the pan.

Depends how you feel about Bunting.

 

[SomeDude]

Mark Madden hasn't even heard of any player who has played less than 300 games for another team.

 

[Malkinstheman]

These guys have to be trolling at this point. How has every media member in Pit seen the trade and nothing has leaked

 

[Jacob]

Suzuki blows.

 

[Empoleon8771]

There are a few Twitter accounts saying it's Bunting, Morrow, Blake and a 2nd. I don't know if it's speculation but that's a really damn satisfying return if that's it.

In all honesty, a bunch of them have probably been chatting in the press box. They don't know enough to actually publish anything, but enough to BS about.

Weird AF isn't it

They are just trying to call each others' bluff.. Trying to be the "first to have known"

 

[IcedCapp]

If the things I think I thought I thunked then yes

 

[EVGENIMERLIN]

Hopefully Morrow and Nadeau or Drury

I’m good with it. Especially if it’s Philly’s 2nd and both prospects sign this summer.
