No way this guy is worse than Matt Nieto

I was so incredibly high on him during his draft year. Hopefully he has a solid career in Europe.

He's probably going back to Europe because he realized no one wants him in the NHL.
His draft position carried him to a much longer career than he deserved tbh.

Penguins fans will blame Sullivan, but the reality is that guys who score 3 goals in 20 games that don't offer anything in terms of special teams or versatility don't stick in the NHL.
Same exact thing happened to Puustinen as well.

Seemed like he could thrive in a bottom 6/checking role but it appears he never really dedicated himself to cultivating that part of his game. Was communication / English still an issue for him?

Another advanced stats guy who isn't actually good, weird.

Whelp, the Puljusance was fun for a month or so back in October.
Switzerland seems a likely landing spot.

He isn’t very good. Is what it is.

He's not. He doesn't remind Sullivan of himself, though, so straight to the press box with him any time he made a mistake.
I’m not convinced he couldn’t kill penalties. For me this is like when DOC got traded—“like the guy, but not a big deal to lose him”.

Are you sure?
They have four languages he doesn‘t speak…
He will play for <100k in Oulu.

true, but he's still better than some others we have. imo
Played well for the Pens but couldn’t get out of Sullys doghouse. A team would be smart to pick him up. A lot of third lines would be better with him.
It’s amazing how many players Sully has almost ruined. I’m sure O’Connor is feeling like that trade was the best thing to ever happen to him.

Sullivan didn't ruin Puljujarvi, his hips getting destroyed ruined Puljujarvi.
He already cleared waivers once because no one wants him on their NHL team and now he's being terminated to go back to Europe.
