3 Pens. One trailing all the way back and Doc just coasting and watching it all unfold like a dipshit.


No he was called up to wbs. Not from. Had a good run in wheeling. Also maybe Larsson is ill. Or if we're lucky, Ned is at least moved and Larsson is up.
Yes he's backing up Bloom, thus not being showcased.

They lost a lot of depth and Marchand is still getting his game back on track after multiple surgeries this summer. Swayman is also finding his form after missing all of camp with his contract negotiations and they don't have a lot of good prospects that are ready and yet they are still better than the Pens.

They are actually 5-3-2 in their last 10.

Pens are 3-5-2 lol.

This Sharks vs Kraken game is wild, for as much as blokes bitch about Jarry and Ned, you lot have not watched enough of other teams.

Grubauer is truly awful and Georgiev is just as bad as Grubby. Those two you can probably score from center ice on. Hell a rookie almost did for how far he was out for his wrister for the 7th goal on Grubby.
This is why I'm hopeful the Avalanche will take Jarrys contract.

I know it wasn't his fault, but my point was he'll never stop that chance, ever. Like Swayman stopped Sid on the same exact opportunity.
Well his confidence is shit, so yeah that plays a massive part in this but it's like you already know he's gonna give up bad goals, the Pens D being absolute shit there is the part that angers me more. One Pen is still by the center line, Doc is coasting, 3 pens all focused on the right boards to Jarry and Coyle walks in and has all day lol. Zero awareness as a team.

I see the Avs making a bigger play for someone else. If the Rangers really blow it up, Shesterkin. They won't move a struggling goalie for another one. Their advantage is Georgiev is a free agent after this and they don't need to move a long term contract of a goalie struggling heavily.

Outside of the hope for Shesterkin being available for them, I think Gibson ends up there instead. They'd need to get a third team to eat some of his cap and give up a decent amount but they need to. That goalie situation for a good team can't be a half ass fix.

Yea. However teams like the Avs can get desperate. Jarry is a 3x all star on one of the worst teams in the league. I'm not saying it's likely, but there's at least hope.

They'll never take on the entire thing I know that.

I get your rationalization for the swap, Jarry would need to really play better and behind this trash system it won't happen or be enough of a change to be worth it imo.

Desperate would be the Gibson move. Gibson is playing great again and healthy. He's the risk I'd take it I'm the Avs. Not Jarry. Dubas will need to hope he gets enough great assets for the vets he should move to package with Jarry as a dump to another team. Like Kraken or some shit, maybe take Grubauer back and buy him out. His cap hit for a buyout is less painful than Jarry's.

I'd do that and also punt Ned somewhere and finish the season with Larsson/Blomqvist/Murashov getting games.

Man do we ever suck. Usually you can look at one or two lines on a team and say well maybe the team is struggling but xyz line is playing well.

Every single line on the Pens stinks.
