I don't think I'm better or worse than anyone for what I want.I dunno, just saying, might what up put the saddle on first, before you climb on your high horse
It is true. It was supported in his most recent interview at the draft, when talking about Quinn.
He was upset about Todd being gone, talking about the human element of these firings, and how good these coaches are. He talked about disagreements with Dubas and finding common ground.
It's because he got too close to Reirden, and his relationships have become his priority.
Yeah, it is disturbing. Something is fundamentally wrong in this organization, compared to the team I grew up watching. That's what I've been trying to explain here.
It's the attitude, not the results, that bother me. The nepotism has seeped in.
But at least it was a good reality check for him.
I think if anything it might bother Sullivan, to be out of the playoffs 3yrs in a row and have Crosby play all 82 games 3yrs in a row, it wouldn't let him hide from the media and I think the heat being turned on to Dubas for not doing enough will finally have him say well I got him who he wanted and he still f***ed it, I'm not taking this shit and they fire Sully and Quinn.
One can dream right?
Start the rebuild already so we're not watching crap hockey for the next 10 years.
I used be firmly in the keep Sid and Geno cuz legacy, nostalgia, etc. But keeping them is clearly ruining the franchise at this point. It is delaying a much needed rebuild and forcing us to waste assets on useless assets like Rackell, Reilly Smith, Karlsson, Hayes, Jarry, etc.
This team will miss the playoffs with the core 3 for the third year in a row. It loses with them and it can lose without them. Start the rebuild already so we're not watching crap hockey for the next 10 years.
Politics in 2024Does it matter if I vote? I already explained my POV.
They have the floor to reach and they will have to overpay players to reach it. It's not like they can go all youth/prospects and get there.You guys know that even if you got your scorched earth wish they gotta fill out the roster with SOMETHING right? Like... I bellyache about the Hayes deal and what it signals but even I don't believe FSG and Dubas are really going to turn this organization into a contract laundering operation. So I mean... dump Sid, Malkin, Letang, EK, Rust, Raks, etc. all you want... they are going to continue to sign and trade for players to construct a roster with or without the core and "waste assets" in doing so.
Cancel me all you want. I don’t think you’d be on this freaking darn board if you don’t believe in the core. You can cancel me for that I don’t care. Just my opinion. Go ahead and cancel me. You don’t give a f***? Nobody was trying to cancel me? Well if you don’t believe in the core, you shouldn’t be watching the game in the first place. That’s just my opinion, go ahead and cancel me for that I don’t care. Shut the f*** up you say? sigh it’s JUST an opinion. Think I care if I get cancelled over an opinion that simple? I DON’T. I’m just freaking ranting about that someone’s trying to cancel me for a stupid like STUPID opinion. Now why cancel someone for their stupid opinions simple. But go ahead though cancel me I don’t care. Why don’t you drop it, let me have my opinions. But yet, I’m not the one that has a problem with it. My opinion. Then why cancel someone for just a simple opinion

Right. This team can still support Sid and company and still garnish top 10 picks.Right. And while it's admittedly difficult to really tell most times that FSG is even AWARE they own a hockey team... their profile and track record suggests they are not going to be down for being a poorhouse kind of club. I think they would accept some down years to draft well but lets be honest with ourselves... do we really think these guys are going to gut the team, crack them down to a salary cap floor organization and proceed to trade for LTIRetired contracts to pad the numbers?
Seems unlikely. People are pining for things that are never going to happen.
It's all good mate, there's no right or wrong these days except for the fact that we're all pretty beaten down with the whole Sullivan/FSG bullshit and Kindergarten Kyle not having the bollocks to fire the coach. The rest is just us trying to survive being a Penguins fan by talking about normal things, knowing that the nimrod of a coach will do as he pleases with the same results.I don't know. I'm just tired of the stress of having to worry about who thinks I'm stupid and who thinks I'm not a real fan because I'm not reacting the way that they want me to.
I'm tired of worrying about trying to make people happy that aren't ever going to be happy.
If that means I'm never respected around here, so be it.

Ya'll are weird, shaming me for wanting the team to win Cups.I don’t watch losers. I watch winners. Sid and Geno are winners. I watch that. Go ahead and cancel me for that opinion, I don’t care. I don’t even care if I ever have to post here again. Try me. See if I care. It’s just an opinion. Cancel me if you don’t like it.
Actually , I change my mind. This idea that if you want the core to stay you aren’t a Penguins fan is actually correct. You only care about the core not the team. That’s why I am declaring Crosby, Malkin and that other one to be worse than Hitler. Now that I established my positon as this boards resident Penguin super fan , you cannot cancel me. Sorry @AuroraBorealis , you’ll never cancel me now. Catch me if you can!
You seem to be the one shaming everybody. Which is odd from you since every few weeks you’re randomly yapping about how a random poster isn’t discussing things in a respectable fashion.Ya'll are weird, shaming me for wanting the team to win Cups.
Yeah, you wanna watch winners so much that you're supporting a push for 9th place finishes.
Go ahead then @KareemTrustfund . Enjoy this directionless, purgatory garbage for the next decade.
Nope. Stating facts is not shaming people.You seem to be the one shaming everybody. Which is odd from you since every few weeks you’re randomly yapping about how a random poster isn’t discussing things in a respectable fashion.
I’m not supporting a push for ninth place finishes either. I’m supporting an 8th place finish and a magical underdog run to the cup, baby! Cant stop us now!
Saying people who want to see Crosby and Malkin stay aren’t Penguins fans- they’re just fans of the players - isn’t a fact. It’s an objectively bad opinion.Nope. Stating facts is not shaming people.
The board has changed into supporting 2-3 players over what's best for the team. All there is to it. I didn't say anything about it being good or bad, merely that the number of fans of the team has plummeted hard. The board is just sensitive to the truth.
A "magical run" is incredibly low %. If you care about the future success of the team at all, you wouldn't advocate for them to waste their time this way, for the 3rd year straight. You would want them to properly open up a new contention window, so they have an actual chance at a Cup.
Obviously you're prioritizing watching Crosby and Malkin over the Penguins, which is totally fine. But don't lie about it please.
I actually don't have a tendency to do that. You clearly don't know me. I try to speak in an objective way here, unlike most.Saying people who want to see Crosby and Malkin stay aren’t Penguins fans- they’re just fans of the players - isn’t a fact. It’s an objectively bad opinion.
I think it’s completely fair and valid to want to trade them to jumpstart a rebuild. Not judging you on that. You just have a tendency to get very condescending and your own rules about poster etiquette often go out the window. Which is fine , I love it tbh , but don’t throw your hands up in the air and act confused why everyone is giving you a tiny bit of grief. I think you’re one of the most entertaining posters here, so don’t take this as an attack.
Now, go get ‘em tiger!
