Tomasino sucks as well and he got a lot more ice time and opportunity in Nashville. He's also slower and worse defensively but yeah cool beans bro.
Salary Cap: Pens '24-'25 Salary Thread: The Crosbicles Volume XIX
- Thread starter Zirakzigil
- Start date
from his draft year
gets his share of pucks with good pursuit speed. Has good quickness and light edging that that makes him a good on the forecheck. Displays a quick snap shot, good hands in small spaces and good stick control on his backhand. His good foot speed and high IQ with excellent hands and the ability to score. Needs to work on his away-from-the-puck game, needs to add muscle.
could be a good complementary player imo

Well for one this isn't a player that was working hard and just lost in the shuffle. He's got documented work ethic issues on and off the ice that has been mentioned by two coaches. His work away from the puck is awful, he isn't good defensively and his skating isn't great so he's a limited player for where you can use him.
It seems stupid to move a 4th for this kind of player over calling up someone from WBS or just using what they have better. Tomasino will have that new team jolt and go back to disappearing a lot like did in Nashville.
I know some Pens fans had some weird hard on for him though which was funny, because he sucks.

HS. He's only been okay in the games he's been in.

Depends entirely who you are on this team.
Toma isn't Crosby or Rust so the answer is probably "not well."
Oh goody…another new acquisition for Sullivan to ruin. 
Best of luck dude. You’re gonna need it playing for this shitshow and f***ing dolt of a coach.

Even if this kid's a bust, who cares? 
Smart move to make imo. Zero risk, decent reward. It was the Ruhwedel 4th iirc, so it's a literal nothing asset, multiple years down the line. /shrug
Preds fans seem pretty disappointed glancing at their board. Consensus seems to be that he's no world beater but if things pan out, he's a decent middle-6 winger with some skill who doesn't shy away from the tough areas of the ice. Even if he's only like a 30pt guy, that's a huge win for a 4th rounder imo.
Now, whether Sullivan plays him in an elevated role or gives him the leash needed to learn on the fly and develop? That's the issue imo. Probably gonna need Sid taking a liking to him in order to have a chance at any success here.

Jarry friggin sucks dude
Yes sure. But This lineup will 100% never happen under Mike Sullivan.
You need to dump Beauvillier and/or Bunting to actually get the Tomasino usage you guys are dreaming of.

Good move by Dubas, credit where it's due. We'd be lucky if a 4th ever turned into a Tomasino. Now up to Sullivan to give him a decent chance

It's been a running theme for him for a few seasons.

I get the sense you lot don't see a lot of Western games?
Apparently he sucks because he can't produce in 8mins of ice time on the 4th line, according to monumental tards.
He should be waived so he can go to another team or wbs. But weird that a player that supposedly sucks isn't waived yet, why would they be afraid to lose a player that sucks on waivers?

The Puustinen apologist act is so funny at this point. Guy f***ing BLOWS.
Zbynek
Jarry friggin sucks dude
And Bunting and Acciari while we're at it. Glass and his 2.5 million can go too.
Oh wait I forgot, we will have to pay out of our ass to move these absolutely brilliant Dubas additions.

Everyone blows right now. Our roster is atrocious. Still doesn't mean we should be playing veteran plugs like Acciari/Nieto over young guys who are still developing and actually need the time up with the big club. (8 minutes on the 4th line doesn't count.)
I don't think anyone is crying over Puustinen, we're all just upset with this rebuild limbo nonsense, and the HC's propensity for PKers who can "play the right way"

They should have waived Puustinen weeks ago. Just move the f*** on already. Not sure why he's even there at this point.
Guy has been with the team for 2 hours but has past issues: Dude sucks!
Goalie has been with the team 9 years, has a multitude of issues that haven't gotten better, and seems to be trending even further in the wrong direction:
If you would direct yourself to document 2382.c on high danger saves when the goalie is being screened at home during weekend games against Western Conference opponents...

Nah mate, let these dumb
cry some more. They bitch about Sullivan sucking but then talk like a Sullivan boot licker. It's funny as hell. Why even bother keeping Puustinen? They barely play him. It's more odd he's still there at this point when Sullivan's usage shows he doesn't want him around. I'm shocked Poulin got as many games as he did too.

Except, ya know, probably not.
The only players on the roster that have negative or very low value right now, is Graves and Jarry. No one else would require payment to move, primarily because Dubas just wouldn't.

Oh big time. A lot of f***ing morons getting super horned out at scouting reports in 2019. Lol. Apparently watching is out of question. f*** do any of us that saw him play recently know?there's a lot of truth to that.

110% agreed. As much on the “play the f***ing kids, what possible reason do we have not to” train as anyone. But, there’s clearly at least one angry little man in here crying over Puustinen getting pushed further down by Tomasino.
