Thread: Soucy
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>buffbry</b></div><div>I'll stick with my team that doesn't threaten to sell the team and move them every 5 years unless we get a superstar. Once sid retires you'll be the kc penguins rebuilding while we are winning cups. Later hoser I'm done with your lack of general lack of manners and hockey knowledge. You're by far the least likeable person on the entire site.</div></div>

Coming from the Red Wings fan who goes onto literally every Red Wings post and makes a comment of "Red Wings decline" Unless the offer is so overloaded in the Red Wings favor that its a a steal is laughable. And hey nice shot with the relocation because you don't have the ability to trash talk from the time the final horn sounded in 09 till Yzerman took over. And if being the "least likeable person on the entire site" means that Im calling out homers like you for the same nonsense Im (Rightfully or wrongfully) accused of? Then give me a badge and I'll wear it proudly.

PS. Big thank you for being my continuous reminder of why I hate Red Wings fans.

Thread: Matheson Trade
Do people that put into these trades not take into consideration EXACTLY what will happen if 29 is brought back to Pittsburgh with the "Fans"? Like really if you look anywhere it is more then obvious what will happen. Allow me to spell it out why I personally am against Fleurys return to the Pens... So lets say he is brought in like you said. So Jarry is the starter going into camp and coming out of camp (Barring injuries).
"Fleury isn't the starter but even still Im just so happy he is back with the team! Cant wait to see him start."
-1 Month into the season-
"Well Jarry has been good but we need to give Fleury more starts because Jarry is starting to flounder a bit and we need him fresh!"
-2 Months into the season after Jarry has a couple of bad games as every goalie will and Fleury is still a backup-
"Well Jarry clearly needs a break! We need to make Fleury the starter so Jarry can rest up and clean up his game!"
-3 Months into the season-
"FLEURY IS THIS TEAMS STARTER!!!!!!"

Im not even saying management will be like this. But the fact that this is what will become of Pittsburgh as the cult of Fleury continues to try and get their idol back as a starter in PGH it is something this team should avoid like the plague till he is retired. I cannot be the only person who sees this trend.

Thread: Dregger reports Aston-Reese in play
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Capitalfail67</b></div><div>lol im not looking up the link you easily can ... google is the fastest way imo. But for now lets use common sense... Murray was once on an ELC ------&gt; then he signed a bridge deal.... so lets think for a moment.... after a bridge deal comes...? oh yes a payday contract more $$$ x 5years. lets even say he takes the Holtby deal thats 6million for 4-5 years. doubt any team is breaking down the door when they could get RL / Holtby for that cost and keep the assets</div></div>

Ive already googled it plenty of times and no such link exists. So I ask again, what is your source for your claim other then the math you are doing yourself.

<a href="https://pittsburghhockeynow.com/sizing-up-matt-murray-next-contract-pittsburgh-penguins/#:~:text=Murray%20currently%20makes%20%243.75%20million,disaster%20which%20neither%20party%20wants" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://pittsburghhockeynow.com/sizing-up-matt-murray-next-contract-pittsburgh-penguins/#:~:text=Murray%20currently%20makes%20%243.75%20million,disaster%20which%20neither%20party%20wants</a>.

This is the closest guestimate that I can even find. Which they put it at roughly 5m for 2-3 years which last I checked is 3m less than the 8m you and other people out here are seemingly valueing a Murray contract at, or rather in your specific case "Claiming he said this" When he didnt. Like I get it, you guys dont value him at all after last season, that's fine, that can be your argument you dont need to throw in cap numbers. You want to say he isn't worth x player is fine on its own. But further justifying it with a bold faced lie? Do better.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Capitalfail67</b></div><div>But they are giving you a 4th line winger with 36 points in 118 games..... his "advance stats" say hes the next Stone lol.... not to mention Murray who is coming off a career low and before the season started he claimed to want 8million a year.... so you can have a more expensive downgrade in net plus a downgrade at wing for only 2 2nd round picks</div></div>

"Murray who is coming off a career low and before the season started he claimed to want 8million a year"
Source? Where did he say this because everyone keeps trying to say it again and again and I cannot find it anywhere. And Im local to PGH. No beat writers have claimed it, they may have speculated how much he will cost, but never once have I seen this "He claimed he wants 8million a year." So can you provide the link to the story or source?
