Yes, as soon as I saw "Crosby" I knew you'd have to sleep this one off.

Literally this is what my mind does to resolve problems
Stress ACGM making
This one is extreme and I lowkey just wanted to see what would potentially be the haul for PIT if they traded like everyone
Don’t take it seriously lol

"I'm losing my mind screaming as the men in white lab coats take me away."

This is exactly how I envision Pens fans on CFACGM if Hexy can't trade Pettersson to Detroit for a 3rd.

minnesota and new jersey decline. Would probably be guentzel for 2OA. Not sure where rust would then go, maybe philly at 50% retained ( assuming managment doesnt mind trading with philly because we wont be good for a while )

Not sure why on earth we would sign those ufas if we were rebuilding though. The only rational behind trading everyone would be an all out tank for bedard

Only thought I have is thank god you brought in Johnny Hockey and Kadri, otherwise that is the damn ugliest Pens team since Rico Fata lol

Actually one more...why on earth would you do that to MAF? He so deserves better.

I wouldn’t trade Dumba+Boldy for Ruhwedel+Guentzel, never mind adding three 1st round picks.

I just signed a bunch of guys to kinda fill out the squad on 1 year deals…
My thinking behind the guentzel trade was… Hagel fetched 2 1sts at the deadline to be a middle-6 player…
To offer sheet a guentzel or player of his caliber you would prob give up the 4 1sts… so how can he not be worth at least 3 late 1st round picks???
