I thought the Pens are going to be bigger, not smoler?Lekkerimaki and Hoglander for Guentzel
Pens are going full Swede.
Anyone pushing Philips off the squad will per definiton makes us bigger.I thought the Pens are going to be bigger, not smoler?
I wont miss Smith, i'd send his whiney pouty ass to Siberia.I'd be 100% fine seeing Smith dumped for Zucker so Arizona can eat salary to dump him back to Vegas.
It's not even like the effort is the issue. He busted his ass all game but he just isn't in sync with anyone on the team. Sid looked his worst with Smith there and I wanted that to work but it really doesn't. If it didn't f*** Geno over I'd rather see Rakell back to the LW and Puustinen on the RW and then bump Bemstrom to Geno's line with Doc (if he's still alive) and dump Smith to Eller with Puljujaarvi.I wont miss Smith, i'd send his whiney pouty ass to Siberia.

Trade all the assets for Brady Tkachuk!It seems like there is or will be a biding war for Guentzel. Maybe the teams missing out on Guentzel panic and Dubas can sell high on guys like Smith, Eller, Harkins (lol). Especially the West is going to be extremely tough with COL,VAN,VGK and EDM.
This is a prime opportunity to get some young talents in the mix and set this team up for next year.
Something is brewing in OTTTrade all the assets for Brady Tkachuk!
If we could add a pick to that it's a hell of a return for Jake! Dubas cannot pass on thatLekkerimaki and Hoglander for Guentzel

Can't really trade Rust, He has a NMC and many years left on his contract.I ended up dozing off but last night further confirms I really do not think the Pens are much worse after the TDL if you trade Jake, Rust, etc and ride some youth.
Also injured….Can't really trade Rust, He has a NMC and many years left on his contract.
No, though there is this about Sullivan's system.Also injured….
i know it’s Yohe but for those of you with access, does this say anything new? Thanks

Yea, I’ve always said this too…another reason to fire Sullivan imo though lol…No, though there is this about Sullivan's system.
Why have they never tried to move Malkin to wing? You would eliminate some of the mistakes he makes handling. All he’d have to do is worry about scoring. — @mscl2112
One time, many years back, I was talking with Rick Tocchet. The conversation revolved around Mike Sullivan’s system.
“The thing is,” Tocchet said, “Sully’s system doesn’t work if you don’t have a ton of speed on the wing.”
So, that’s my answer as to why it probably isn’t as good of an idea as many think.
SOOO because a GM whoever it may have been didn't get him speedy Wingers to play his system, They should fire Sullivan ? GOT ITYea, I’ve always said this too…another reason to fire Sullivan imo though lol…

Was referring to the assets that Dubas would receive as part of the "retool" but that could work. Ha.If we could add a pick to that it's a hell of a return for Jake! Dubas cannot pass on that

This is pretty fair honestly. None of the 1sts we've given out have amounted to much sans the 2015 1st that netted Barzal but that's because Boston thought they outsmarted everyone...lolz.I think I would prefer a trade around Leki+Hoglander rather than get a first back. I don't know why, but late firsts traded in rental trades just seems cursed to me. Almost feels likes 2nd rounds picks are better to have than pick 24-32. I'd much rather get a D+1/D+2 player.
