Dubas gets his boy back

To quote that clown Dangle

Kyle Dubas LOVES his guys

So is this part of the Boston deal for Carlo? In that something is going from PIT to BOS (and possibly back to TOR from PIT)?

I think the insiders just jumped the gun when they heard Carlo to Toronto, and seen those guys get pulled from Leafs practice

Dewar has his uses but couldn't buy a goal in TOR. There was really no reason to keep him following the return of Jankrok and the acquisition of Laughton.

Timmins is a decent number six/seven. Carlo is definitely an upgrade over him.

Dubas said it was a 5th in his press conference right now.

 

[The Shadow]

Steeves had more goals than Dewar and played what 2 games since the new year ?

Why did Dubas pay for these players?

 

[Big McLargehuge]

Why did Dubas pay for these players?

I think the answer is so that the prospects can develop in a stretch run for WBS, rather than have Sullivan play them for 6 minutes a night...otherwise there's not a single reason why the Penguins should be paying assets for waiver-caliber nonsense. Sullivan is going to be obsessed with these dregs.

 

[TOGuy14]

Adding two decent seasoned guys under 30 for a 5th is good asset management.

The chances of a 5th round pick playing meaningful NHL time is basically 0.

Dewar and Timmins can be NHL regulars

 

[SEALBound]

If they work out well, great. If not, Dubas will just trade each of them for a 2nd + 4th next year. Win win.

 

[chethejet]

Timmons can be a decent RD which are not in big supply. I like his fit on a team in need of younger RD with right shots. No idea on the other player but for a 5th no big deal. Dubas knows them very well so he must like what they can bring or develop into eventually.

Timmins on pace to win the Norriss with Pittsburgh

 

[SEALBound]

Dewar 3 goals in 2 games. That's a 123 goal per 82 pace. We are happy.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Timmins and Dewar have both been very good for the Penguins. Dewar is just a 4th liner, but he actually finishes his hits (which no one else on this team seems to do) and goes to the dirty areas. Timmins just looks like a damn solid bottom pair RD.

With Karlsson likely being traded this off-season, I’d definitely keep Timmins around going forward. Dewar is whatever but way better than the Nietos and Acciaris of the world in the spot.

 

[The Shadow]

We had Dewar who is better than Laughton. God the leafs are just cursed

 

[57special]

Dewar is a decent player. Can skate, knows how to play, has a sneaky good shot, and is tough for a small guy. Was injured a bit, and couldn't buy a goal in TOR. He can play C, but needs to get better on FO's. I would take him back on MN over some of the trash we are playing now.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Not surprised. Penguins are garbage but they have Crosby in the room who isn't a complete loser. Leafs have no leadership you could import McDavid, Draisatl, MacKinnon, Makar, Q. Hughes, all onto the Leafs and give them 40 games they will all lose any edge and heart they play with.
