Was it a rumor or a suggestion from the writer?

I hope Adams decline

The rumor originated with a tweet from Jimmy Hayes saying the pens, isles and bruins are in on Reinhardt.

in the Athletic, gentille, Rossi, and yohe proposed this as Pittsburgh’s best package

The Athletic is a joke and so is Hayes, Sam Reinhart > > Marcus Pettersson+Nathan Legare+Pittsburgh's 2021 2nd round pick.

If this its Pitts best package, you can scratch them off the list

Not really a rumour then. Just a trade proposal

I think they’d probably have to swap Legare for Poulin, which I don’t think Hextall would be willing to do. No trade to be made here

Yeah this package wouldn't get Mantha, And Reinhart > Mantha Kevyn Adams would definitely want Poulin added to the deal at the very least.

The Athletic is actually very good. You’re just mad this trade didn’t have a NTC/NMC for you complain about.

Not if they're proposing those pieces for Sam Reinhart they're not, I wouldn't deal Mantha for those pieces and Reinhart > Mantha. If Adams deals Reinhart he'd do do far better then this.

If this is the best package, that is saying something. No way would buffalo consider this

More straight trash out of the dumpster fire that is the Athletic

I would love for this to happen, but it 99.9999999% won't. The Pens don't have the assets to get someone like Reinhart

This is literally the best package Pittsburgh really has to offer, so actually the athletic did a perfectly good job of saying what Pittsburgh’s best offer would be...

They are just responding to the rumor that Pittsburgh is one of the cities interested in Reinhardt and saying what our best offer is.

Nobody is expecting this to happen

Doubt you read the piece

If the rumor is true that these teams are interested, Pittsburgh has the worst pieces to offer. The article in the athletic mentions New York’s first and Boston’s Trent Frederick as trade pieces that are just more valuable than anything we’ve got.

Our best hope would be that Buffalo places a high value on a Dman but Petey is likely not that guy

It’s a rumor because a former NHL player tweeted that Pittsburgh, Boston and New York are interested in Sam Reinhardt.

Who wants to argue the semantics of if it’s a rumor or proposal anyway this is such a waste of time

and I bet you did, I bet you paid for it and believed every word of it.
Maybe one day you'll learn.

Pharrow when you say “believed it” what does that even mean? What in that article was to be believed or not believed?

Do you not agree that Petey, picks and legare are the best trade chips Pittsburgh has right now?

Do you not believe Boston and New York have better trade chips?

Do you think this trade proposal falls short for Buffalo?

I’d you weren’t so crotchety and self righteous you’d be able to figure out that the article agrees with you

Jesus.

I refer to the click bait crap which is total nonsense that you are over here pretending like it actually happened.
There is very clearly no conversation to even be had here.
But yet here it is more dumpster fire "rumors" from a horrible source.

What are you even talking about Pharrow you are literally not making sense. I do not see this trade as viable. Boston and Isles have way better packages.

THE ARTICLE DOES NOT SEE THIS TRADE AS LIKELY.

Who are you disagreeing with man? You keep agreeing with the article and then calling them a dumpster fire and trash and horrible and all that... you are acting strangely

I just realized you probably aren’t reading my comments since you didn’t read the article either. So maybe that explains the strange behavior

The only other explanation is that you are just intentionally trying to be a jerk or troll and I choose not to believe that. I doubt you would want to do that with your Pharrow profile since you spend about 15 hours a day on here.

Correct, the conclusion is that this package, while not worthless, doesn’t compare with packages built around the Isles first or Boston’s Trent Frederick

the only one acting strangely here is you.
like honestly what is your issue?
Do you write for the Athletic?
You should tell them to stop producing pure garbage.

I don’t understand why you call it garbage when you agree with the opinion. You just don’t make sense bro. You looking weird as **** right now. You aren’t even really addressing anything I say you’re just on a weird tirade where you insult everyone but don’t really make any arguments.

It’s just strange to come in and call it all garbage while actively agreeing with what is actually in the article, and admitting you haven’t read a word of it. Just incomprehensibly thick my guy. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Nobody else in here seems to be behaving in such a rabid manner
