Bemstrom Thoughts

Created by: Play_Party_Hard
Team: 2023-24 Pittsburgh Penguins
Initial Creation Date: Feb. 23, 2024
Published: Feb. 23, 2024
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
It's likely that Bemström could start with Malkin, but I'd like to go with the momentum that O'Connor and Puustinen have established.

I'm sure Bemström will also end up on one of the PP units.

Phillips will end up back in Washington or down in WBS.

Now if only Sullivan sits Carter and plays Puljujärvi at 4RW...

My thoughts are that it is an entirely inconsequential move with low risk and low potential reward.

Most likely true. I like to think there could be possibly higher reward after coming from a bottom of the league team. We shall see.

He is now the second youngest forward on the roster now behind Puustinen. Dubas is keeping his word so far lol.

Very low risk move tbh. Maybe Bemstrom will break out with us and be a solid young 3rd liner to pair with Eller. I’ll say though that at least Dubas is recognizing the Penguins Age Problem and is doing stuff to fix it.

I don't know why people have such an issue with the trade. Not every trade is going to be for a superstar. Is it going to push the team into the playoffs? No. Is it a perfectly fair trade? Yes.

And if it gets Phillips out of the lineup - it's a glorious trade lol.
