The Retool Read description before trashing on it lol

Created by: penzillafan
Team: 2023-24 Pittsburgh Penguins
Initial Creation Date: Apr. 13, 2023
Published: Apr. 13, 2023
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Hextall and Burke will most likely be fired.
Sullivan and the majority of the coaching staff will most likely be fired.
Pens tried to get Miller during the deadline and I still think they want him. Or another hight end player on the offensive side.
Find new goaltending, the two guys I would try to go after would be Swayman and Saros. Boston has Ullmark who's locked up and they have a lot of guys to resign. Nashville who is in a rebuild/retool stage drafted Askarov in the 1st round a few years ago.
Build the defense, because Letang can't play 25+ minutes at his age and with his heath history. Maybe bring in another proven dman, but they have young guys who were drafted in the 1st round.
PO Joshep could be trade bait, but only for the right deal. He's still young with a lot of upside.
GIVE Ty Smith a chance in the NHL.
Get rid of the Petry's contract for anyone who will take him, I just picked a random team and return.
Hopefully Carter retires
I think a guy like Nylander can really break out. In the few games he's played with the Pens he's looked very promising. If not thats why im leaving cap space so they can get someone who's proven for the 3rd line or maybe call up one the guys from WBS who has high upside.
Get rid of Granlund, and Vancouver has dumb management and would be willing to take him on.
Get a younger guy who I believe is solid on the defensive side and has offensive upside. Correct me if im wrong but I believe Barbashev covers both of those boxes.

Way to look at a perfectly logical argument and insert a comment that is both aside from the point and attempting to be dismissive. You're the real champion here. Congrats!


Also just from taking a look at your posts, just because they're on the pens doesn't mean they're all Mario Lemieux, cheers bucko.

I appreciate it, your take just has me scratching my head, like yea maybe the plus minus leader isnt a complete black hole on the ice, didn't think that was an earth shattering take. Or the dman that plays the most minutes out of d men on the best pk in the league...


I agree that those guys have some value but trading Forbort doesn't help enough with the cap. Bos needs to trade guys like Hall and Coyle to get out of it without losing extremely valuable players. Hall has negative value. Coyles advanced stats are brutal. A relative CF% AND FF% of -10. That's terrible. He is a negative contributer.

Also, I don't know why you brought up Lindholm (+/- leader). I put him in the category of players that teams WOULD want.

Again with the insults. Learn to have a conversation with someone without trying to belittle them. I am not going to feel emasculated by you or anyone on a website.
