Description

The Penguins are juggling a lot of balls right now. Bad balls. Injuries as usual. Inconsistencies especially from goaltending. Pittsburgh have been eliminated early and have been unsuccessful for the playoffs 6 years in a row now.
2017-18 Won 1 Round
2018-19 Lost First round
2019-20 Lost First round
2020-21 technically missed playoffs Lost First qualifying round
2021-22 Lost First round
2022-23 missed playoffs
The one common factor is Mike Sullivan. Penguins are on their third GM and the roster has changed a lot too.

Anaheim passes alllllllll day long

You want us to take Jarry’s contract and ALSO retain 2 million a year on Gibson? LOL Not to mention taking a Carter cal dump as well

Crazy

Not like Anaheim is competing. Goalies don't have good value so don't expect something amazing. Gibson is somewhat better than Jarry, jarrys still good. The reason pens do this is to shed cap which is why there's retention. Carters ok but 3 million makes all the difference with competing teams so fans complain

So what's in this for Anaheim? Instead of $6.4 million for Gibson we pay $7.375 million for Jarry plus the retention? In what universe does that make sense, never mind your agreement with our assessment that Gibson is a better goalie than Jarry. You think that a crummy over-the-horizon second is sufficient compensation for that, never mind the two cap dumps?

So Gibson is better, but you want us to eat 8 million of his contract, take the worse goalie back, take cap dump Carter, threw in a depth forward, and our payment for ALL OF THAT is a 2nd round pick three drafts away?

Nah, we'll just keep the better goalie. You can have Stalock for that offer.

Jarry has been excellent this year. It's a dumb idea to trade him.

And Schenn sucks. I'd rather run a 3rd pair of POJ-Ruhwedel which is very good and cost effective.
