Thread: (PIT/MTL) - Matheson for Petry, Poehling
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Koskinen_The_Great</b></div><div>I expect a lot of chaos. That is fine in a rebuild. They'll need some more experience, moving Romanov out and now Petry. It's getting thin. They got nothing on the right side to cover his end to end rushes. He's a placeholder, nothing more. They have a ton of left D prospects. A big reason why they could flip Romanov. If anything he can be flipped for a decent return as his contract should age well. Gudbranson almost makes as much as Mikey M. from Pointe Claire. With the cap going up, his deal will be looked at as a bargain.</div></div>

I was really hoping pens traded either Dumo or Petterson instead but Kent Hughes was insistent on Matheson. Makes sense. He’s a better player (based on his performance in Pittsburgh last season). I think Petry will also really help Letang because he can eat more minutes than Matheson. Give Letang maybe 23-24 mins a night and Petry 21-22. Should help both guys as they age

Thread: Pittsburgh Penguins signed Evgeni Malkin (4 Years / $6,100,000 AAV)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jpsnow13</b></div><div>Good for you but I'm talking about future results, not 6 years ago... You are obviously stuck in old nostalgia.

If you want to talk about past record, I would underline that most recently, Pens haven't won a playoff round in the last 4 years (like the Leafs). That's not being "competititve" IMO.

At least, TML stars are in their prime. Geno can't even play half a season because of injuries. Good luck with that.</div></div>

Pens have struggled in the playoffs as of recent and I don’t expect them to win anymore cups. That being said, they are still very much a playoff team and can absolutely win a round or two. They would’ve beat NYR this passed season had it not been for Louis Domingue lol. Pens whole goal for the remainder of the Crosby era is to be competitive and not implode like Chicago. Mission accomplished.
