Salary Cap: Pens Summer Salary Thread: We Hayes Dubas's offseason moves so far

[BusinessGoose]

Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins haven't won a playoff series since 2018. FACT! How much longer do you want him steering the ship to futility?

I would sign him at least 3-4 years, to bring us back to contender status

 

[Tom Hanks]

Very true, so another year we'll be led by a guy who hasn't helped us to a post season series victory since 2018 and turns 37 soon.

Give it a rest George

Yes, because he's done such a great job of that the last six years.

It's the truth! You might not like the truth, but...

You can have your cute little posts there, but it doesn't change the last six years of no playoff victories now does it?

 

[BusinessGoose]

True, we can ride our 13th overall pick to the playoffs, my bad

Because it’s all Sid’s fault

Don’t let your “truth” get in the way of facts……..

“Definitely Sid’s fault we lost in our last playoff series against the Rangers” - Ryder (probably)

*He was our leading scorer and him missing the last game probably cost us a series win.


“Definitely Sid’s fault we didn’t make the playoffs the past season” - Ryder (probably)

*He was our leading scorer and had 40% more points than 2nd leading scorer.

You don’t have to reply, it’ll be something like this ……..

Well, who's fault is it then, everyone else'?

He's considered by some as one of the best players ever, so yes he deserves a big hand in the failures of this team.

In his last four post season performances since 2018 he's accrued 5 goals 11 assists for 16 points in 20 games and is a -4. Who's to blame for that? Everyone else, right?

You don't have to like the facts fanboi, but you can't refute them junior.

 

[Turin]

Hopefully a camp dump to garner more draft picks.

Wouldn't be surprised if it was for a sightly overpaid fwd with a pick stapled to him who they still view as a potential upgrade.

 

[Ryder71]

Can't do worse than a captain who hasn't won a damn thing since he was 30.

Should we wait until he's 40? Well, we're gonna have to. Because for the next three years we aint doing a damn thing.

[Darren McCord]

Weird how Granlund sucks because he produced on the Sharks yet EK65 was a great trade because.. he produced on the Sharks?

No granlund sucks cause he scored at like a 4g 20pt pace for 20 games here.

Also Granlund had more minutes per game than Sid last year while also being a power play merchant.

He sucks and will probably be abysmal next year as smith and celebrini take his time.

 

[Ryder71]

2018 was a long time ago now. I know I know it was Kyles fault for the failures of '19, 20, '21, '22, and '23. He wasn't here, but hey, blame him anyhow, YES????????

It's just easier to blame him because the Crosby fanboi's can't bring themselves into blaming their hero for anything.

And who's the player who wanted us to hold onto Geno and Letang into their late 30's or 40's? That would be Sid as well.

 

[Ryder71]

I know I'm a big Crosby fanbois,, I'm just rambling because you're saying mean things about my hero!

You don't say? Um, well junior there all true! Grow up!

 

[farscape1]

So next season we can re-sign Geno too for a few more years. That way him, Sid, Letang can be in their early 40s playing together.

 

[Ryder71]

Sid gave me an autograph picture when I was 15 years old and I kiss it everynight before I go to bed. It's my most cherished possession!!!!!

Good for you, nighty night junior!

They might as well just stay until their all in diapers.

 

[Tom Hanks]

I don’t care about getting made fun of but quoting me then rewriting a completely different quote is poor form.

 

[66-30-33]

Crosby 3 years 10M cap hit
Malkin 2 years 6M cap hit

Malkin, Letang, Crosby retire after Letangs contract runs out, which would be Crosbys and Malkins final contract after playing 22 years together.

Pens sign Carter to a 1 year deal and to play 1C finally!

 

[BusinessGoose]

Lol

Sounds like a perfect plan, to get us to plummet in the standings that is.

 

[Ryder71]

Kyle isn't done

Hope not. He's barely started!

I mean, that's the plan isnt it? keep the band together while we stink and they teach the young guys?

Social Security will likely be insolvent before these guys hit the bricks!

Don't think we will suck too badly we get someone like McKenna though.

 

[Ryder71]

Don't think we will suck too badly we get someone like McKenna though.

The next two drafts are supposedly pretty deep so we'll see.
