Nice! Good for the Pens! Im sick of seeing Holl and Poolman too. People on here always think their players that have no value somehow have value to other teams.

At least you don't have 34 year old Jeff Petry with 3 years left on his contract at 6.25 mil AAV being traded to your team every hour.

I never noticed your avatar quote LOL

But yeah, I can imagine what that's like. I forgot to add Colin Miller to the list. Sabres fans keep sending him to us and he also doesn't hold a candle to Ruhwedel. Yeah, he puts up some decent points, but he's trash at everything else.

Oh, we all know. I definitely feel for your guys. Especially when I read Chiarelli is a GM candidate. That hurts.

The quote originates from Hockey Buzz where pathological liar Eklund has has had Malkin being traded ever since he was drafted. "Malkin wants to be The Man" was a direct quote from Eklund. He had him being traded to Chicago about 5 years ago.

I'm on here more. The Pens board on there has been very quiet, so I'm there occasionally. What's your handle on there?

I used to be gergeswillems. But Ek didn't like me making fun of him all the time and I was frequently suspended. I also caused Garf to have a nervous breakdown. Good times. 👍

I expect it the second the playoffs every year. I'm sure he will kick it into high gear if Geno hasn't re-signed by then.

Right? Like, I get they are exploring all options, but why would they even interview the guy. Maybe it was to get a better idea of what not to look for. lol.

And, meh... Feel for the fans, sure... I guess. But the organization itself is getting what it deserves, regardless of no one being left in the front office from that era (aside from Rocky Wirtz, of course. But I heard, contrary to his outburst at the town hall thing, he is taking a backseat on the operations of this team).

100% agree with you.

Ruh has quietly put together a great season for a 3rd pair guy. He has also done it while taking 1-2 penalties all year. So he does his job, and never puts the team in a bad position on the PK, all for 800K.

I still believe the path forward is moving one of our #3-5 dmen in the offseason. Glad we got Ruhwedal locked up.
