Thread: How I think it should’ve went
I see you have the Penguins drafting Gabe Perreault, which is who I wanted. Yet they always blow it when they have a first-round pick. 2006 - Staal instead of Towes or Bäckström. 2007 - Esposito instead of Pacioretty. 2008 - Moon instead of Nyquist. 2009 - Despres instead of O'Reilly. 2011 - Morrow instead of Rakell. 2012 - Pouliot instead of Trouba or Forsberg, Määttä instead of Matheson or Skjei. 2014 - Kapanen instead of Pastrnak or McCann. 2015 - Sprong instead of Dunn, 2016 - Gustavsson; should have kept, Björkqvist instead of Fox. 2018 - Calen Addison; should have kept, Filip Hållander; should have kept. 2019 - Poulin instead of Kaliyev or Tomasino. 2022 - Pickering instead of Snuggerud. 2023 - Yager instead of Perreault, Wood, Moore, or Barlow (this draft was rigged for Chicago to get Bedard).

Thread: Run for the cup
Sid isn't making $8.7 million. That is his cap hit from the 12-year contract he signed in 2013-14. His base salary for the final three years of that contract is $3 million/year. Now, Letang's base salary for his new six-year deal will be $8 million for the first two years, $6.2 million for year three, and $4.8 million for the last three years. Letang will be making $1.8 million more/year when he is 40 and 41 than Crosby is now. Sure, Letang probably could have gotten more if he went free agent, but it appears he has some class and loyalty to Penguins fans. Look at Malkin's last two seasons compared to Crosby. Malkin played in 74 games and put up 70 points; not even a point per game. Crosby played in 124 games and scored 146 points. Malkin's game is failing and you want to pay him 7.5 Million? He would be lucky to get $6 million/year on a three-year deal. If he wants more, let him walk, and be some other team’s problem.

Thread: Next Year
You guys kill me with all of the hair-brained signings. Why would/should the Penguins give two-year contracts to garbage RFA and UFAs? They need to extend Malkin, Rust, Letang, Carter, Rodrigues, Kapanen, Heinen, Aston-Reese, and perhaps Domingue, as well as Nylander, Bellerive, Joseph, and Lee; the rest are useless. They should sign Svejkovsky, Ansons, and maybe Phillips. They also need another right-handed defenseman. Perhaps Colin Miller, even Robert Bortuzzo would be better than their current third pair options. Maybe they could make an offer to Tony DeAngelo. Noah Dobson or Adam Boqvist would come discounted. Zucker needs to go, but they can only get a draft pick for him. Let’s use some common sense on this interactive portion of this site. PHARROW RULES! HE SHOULD BE THE PENGUINS GM.
