Why, that's THE Roger Hicks of NHL insider fame, of course.
The 87 will be that he signs on August 7th.If it’s 10, it has to have an 87 in there somewhere. 9.87. 10.87.
Still hoping it’s the same or lower hit, but it doesn’t really matter.

or an 87% chance he signs on 8/7 for 8.7M a year.Or there’s an 87% chance Sid re-signs
TIL 8/7 '87 has significance.or an 87% chance he signs on 8/7 for 8.7M a year.
I guess it's a slow week. I got nothing!
Or there’s an 87% chance Sid re-signs
They will dismiss this because something something the writer doesnt know what they are talking about.
Lol…ranked 30th of 32 teams…where are the Jarry admirers?
One thing that it feels abit low for us are the future part. Didn't know half the league have 2 G prospects better than Blomqvist/Murashov tandem.They will dismiss this because something something the writer doesnt know what they are talking about.

I feel we're a bit underrated as far a G prospects goes.
Was reading Yohe's mailbag and he mentioned that he found Reilly Smith surly and that when he asked people in the organization about it they claimed that he made it known from day one that he didn't want to be in Pittsburgh.
Kinda bizarre to trade for him if that were the case. I guess Dubas was hoping that Smith would be a professional and/or that Pittsburgh would grow on him. Imo the guy mailed it in on a regular basis here and I'm pretty happy he's gone. A shame too because I did like the trade on paper at the time.
In retrospect it doesn't look like Dubas did his research. Why trade for a guy who doesn't want to be here? I know it happens all the time in sports and sometimes it works out but I'd never trade for a guy that blatantly didn't wanna be here.
Josh Yohe is a f***ing moron, he'd spin any narrative he can where he looks sympathetic and a player he didn't like, looked bad. f*** that loser, this is the sort of garbage we have for Pens writers, none have the sack to write anything that actually criticizes the issues.To be fair anyone would be surly if they had to talk to Josh Yohe
Smith maybe heard how the Penguins were like and knew what he was getting himself into and wasn't happy about it. I don't think I am all that mad about him feeling that way like most are, some here really have an axe to grind about him feeling that way like it was a personal insult. Like this franchise hasn't become a f***ing joke the last few years.Was reading Yohe's mailbag and he mentioned that he found Reilly Smith surly and that when he asked people in the organization about it they claimed that he made it known from day one that he didn't want to be in Pittsburgh.

I wouldn't say I'm mad at Smith or anything but I am glad to be rid of him if he didn't want to be here. The guy was a bum on the ice and played like crap.Smith maybe heard how the Penguins were like and knew what he was getting himself into and wasn't happy about it.

Long gone are the days where the Penguins were this destination to play with Crosby and this insane professionalism and class by the team, this isn't that team anymore.
And I mean, Sullivan has had Crosby play 2 full seasons without an injury and he failed to make the playoffs in both of them, he was trending towards this anyway but he isn't some coach players seek out to play for, that's for f***ing sure and they all now know the promises or allure of potentially playing with Crosby isn't there at all and you're more likely to play with Lars Eller or Kevin Hayes instead and maybe thrown into a situation with Malkin that won't work because he's been getting f***ed by the organization since 2007.
On one hand, Smith looked every bit the petulant loser during his time with the team. On the other, it also reeks of Yohe trying to cover the team's ass for making a f*** up in trading for the guy in the first place. Which feels like a Pittsburgh sports media classic tbh.
Sid's just trying to figure out the best way to tell Geno and Tanger that he's bailing this sinking ship after convincing both guys to sign retirement deals with the Penguins.
He's just doing what many before him do.I know people will roll their eyes at this... at least certain people. Oh well. But it makes Kyle look like that much more of a jackass that he pointed the finger at Malkin when asked about Smith's poor season and then... traded him anyway. Way to toss someone under the bus for no good reason, dickhead.
I don't even have to talk to Yohe to be surly. Just reading anything he writes about makes me want out of Pittsburgh (and I don't even live there!).To be fair anyone would be surly if they had to talk to Josh Yohe
We're not allowed to use our brains anymore to speak outrageously obvious truths in 2024.don’t really need anyone to tell me that smith didn’t want to be here
