Game 7 of the stanley cup finals...LET'S GOOOOO!!

Oh nvm just last game of preseason.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Today's a fun sports day, Mariners first playoff game in 20+ years at 1 and then the Penguins game at 4

 

[DesertedPenguin]

Blueger and defensemen Pettersson and Ruhwedel, who are not scheduled to play Friday night, along with Lindberg, also worked out on the ice prior to the morning skate.

Blueger Joins Penguins For Optional Skate, Making ‘Significant Progress’

Pittsburgh Penguins center Teddy Blueger, who has an upper-body injury, joined the team for its optional morning skate Friday at PPG Paints Arena, wearing a white, presumably non-contact jersey. It was his first time skating with any semblance of the team since he got hurt. He won’t play Friday...

So guessing Smith with Petry and POJ with Friedman on the back end.

This place will shit bricks if they end up trading Pettersson before the season starts.

Kinda. It'll be like being constipated and finally being able to shit. Relief that the turd, Petts in this case, is gone.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

Yeah, curious as to how they'll assemble the defense pairings. Maybe try out Rutta on the left?

Rutta-Letang
Dumoulin-Petry
POJ/Smith-Friedman

?

I think POJ plays with Petry and they keep Smith-Rutta together.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

POJ and Petry together sounds, uh, adventurous.

the young core of ... brian dumoulin???

On this geriatric Penguins team, 31 IS young.

 

[chethejet]

I have to believe Hextall has shopped Petts and just no one wants that contract. I do think he can be moved in the off season with 2 years left. But with so many tight cap teams and just taking on this GMJR contract without any additional incentive is just not in the cards.

Naw, I will be fine. But still hoping we land that Arizona kid.

 

[AuroraBorealis]

I'll guarantee Tage Thompson does not score tonight.

He must not be playing then…lol

 

[smakki]

35 mins to puck drop and no lineups?

 

[Gurglesons]

35 mins to puck drop and no lineups?

Trying to trade POJ in the next 15 minutes.

 

[Empoleon8771]

They don't tweet out the lineups that early.

I don't think warmups have even started yet.

 

[Ugene Magic]

I hope it's nothing too drastic, @Zirakzigil?

Get well soon...!


LGP!

 

[Empoleon8771]

Here it is. As I expected, POJ in for Pettersson.

If they trade Pettersson before the season starts, I'm going to poop myself in joy.

 

[Gurglesons]

Poehling is going to get Sully’d eh?

Nah I think it was fairly easy to predict that this was going to be their healthy forward lineup.

The D pairs are what is catching my eye. I imagine they're probably just showcasing POJ, but still, I'm really hoping POJ just replaces Pettersson.

Blueger isn’t playing Poehling is in. I honestly don’t understand why they acquired Poehling if he is just going to sit on the bench.
