Ownership wont do jack no matter what. Hard to watch the demise of the Pens but it started with bad decisions on extending Sullivan and not seeing how incompetent Hextall is. Fire them tonight on principle but FSG doesn't give a rats ass so back to 12000 at the paint can and Sid gone. Don't blame him for F this to FSG.

I think Sullivan is partly to blame for the physical manhandling we routinely take because even when JR noticed the problem and went after Reaves, Oleksiak and Gudbranson they seemed completely neutered under Sullivan. Hell the only big hit I recall any of them throwing was Oleksiak on Byfuglien and he was the receiver. Did Gudbranson have a single fighting major?

But we’ve also seen that kind of player we’re lacking go way up in value, but 6 years is more than enough time to draft and develop the kind of players you’re lacking, and we didn’t do that either.

They said during a broadcast Reirden was specifically coaching big neutral zone hits out of Petry’s game. Like why?

Reirden did wonders for Matt Niskanen's confidence. And for some reason that warrants him being coach again after already failing in Pitt once. So stupid. You got to coach Ovechkin and Backstrom on the PP and your defensemen had to play in Trotz system. Good job.. you don't do anything.

Five million for two more season for a 2nd round pick. Go figure?
Shoulda kept Kap, saved 2 million and dumped Carter.

Sully should have been fired 3 years ago. But Hextall has killed this franchise for years, maybe a decade unless they get extremely lucky.

soff team, soff results.

At least the gang are all banking cash and getting to enjoy dinner with each other.

Hextall deserves fired for that move alone.

Kap
McGinn
Carter
Granlund
Petry in a year?

Who does he bring in that doesnt become a burden to move.
It’s his forte at this point. Clinging desperately to useless, vanilla, overpaid nothing players who become salary cap poison. Bonus points if he can make the roster older while acquiring them.

So help me god, if he stays on in the summer and signs Jarry to some forever deal…

Good strategy by the Pens to fall so far behind that the rules of the sport are actually applied to people wearing blue jerseys.
