Thread: Hey Pens fansis Murray available

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bigZ98</b></div><div>As a pens fan if we are trading murray it has to be for help now. I would assume RNH is part of the deal for sure, and like Bjugstad for cap balance. RNH would also probably have to come with an extension in place since its a RFA for UFA trade</div></div>

they most likely aren't going to move him until they are out the playoffs next year.

They have plenty of time between the end of the season and the expansion draft to get that done.

The question is do they have a deal with Seattle on a goalie, if not, than you can probably work something out.

People love to downplay Murray’s value on this website. A trade like that would make sense. But Realistically, pens won’t move Murray atm.

Thread: best 2 way team

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bigZ98</b></div><div>Dude how you gonna take crosby out. Take Matthews out and replace him with Cirelli. Crosby is elite in his two-way game for a guy who produces as much offense as he does.</div></div>

Hey man, I really didnt think that Crosby had a great defensive game but I could be wrong!!!
But yeah Matthews for Cirelli and move Marchy up
At least swap Crosby and ROR

I agree. Unpopular opinion but I think severson is a Manson type talent. His cost would have to be similar right? I’m also not a fan of either team just my opinion

Thread: Switching up the lines and powerplay

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bigZ98</b></div><div>100%, you can put a little of it on the fact we no longer have kessel who was the puck controller along the boards but even with him last year we had so many short handed goals against. Tocchet did a fantastic job with the PP, Recchi has not impressed me as of late.</div></div>

Yeah you can definitely take not having Phil into account a little bit but he was such a rare talent when it came to the powerplay and that’s when you need to rely on coaching to fill that void.

Thread: The NHL owes Detroit draft luck

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bigZ98</b></div><div>Dont think the NHL owes any team anything lol. How would you feel if you were a mediocre team and all of a sudden the NHL was helping a team lower than you with the draft to get better picks? Isnt exactly the most fair thing in the world ya know. I think Detroit has had a dynasty long enough that they can handle a couple years of the basement.</div></div>

I agree the NHL doesn't owe any team. Most of the time a when a team gets into that mediocre rut it's from poor player management, bad picks and bad signings that got them there. Or thinking you can speed up a rebuild by singing big name UFAs or trading multiple assets for 1 established player. Can you really call 4 cups in 11 seasons a dynasty? If you are referring to the 25 season playoff streak that is why Detroit is so bad now 25 years of buying at the TDL completely decimated their prospect pool. Since 1997 Detroit didn't have a 1st round pick in 9 of those seasons. Chicago had 3 cups in 6 seasons and Pittsburgh had 3 cups in 9 season plus they are the only team to go back to back is the salary cap era. As a Wings fan 4 years in the basement is enough for me but I also know Detroit isn't close to a playoff team.

Thread: Current Potential Lines with injuries

Rodrigues-Blueger-Tanev is a scary 4th line. They can check and they can score.

I think they will try to play Marleau with Malkin first. Simon is useful only with Crosby. No room for him now I think.

And Marleau can improve situation with the face-offs. They are both skillfull players who can take advantage of the skillet and style of play I hope :halo

Thread: Depth moves

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bigZ98</b></div><div>Marleau trade sure, Hainsey..... dont think hes needed this defense will be fine when dumo and marino are back. As a depth piece he is fine but no need to pay that much for him</div></div>

Yeah I felt it was an overpay but I looked at it this way. Bjugstad is pretty much useless this year anyway, Hainsey had success here and would be an upgrade over JJ until Dumo gets back. Then would be an upgrade over Ruhwedel until Marino gets back. Then he’d have to fight for a spot with JJ. I think rotating them in and out might be good. But reports just came in that marleau trade is almost done. Apparently it’s 2 picks instead of a pick and lower prospect.
