Man Hextall really screwed things up bad.

Metro Notes: Hanifin, Petry, Wilson

Notes on Noah Hanifin's fit with PIT, Kyle Dubas' efforts to trade Jeff Petry, and the Capitals' lack of efforts to trade Tom Wilson

Adding a top-end left-shot defenseman to pair with Kris Letang is a priority for Pittsburgh, especially seeing as head coach Mike Sullivan “repeatedly pushed” for the team to acquire Jakob Chychrun from the Arizona Coyotes last season.

Ummm letting your best bottom six forward go.

Why am I getting flashbacks of the Howard Baldwin backruptcy years?

Nieto is much better than what they had on the 4th line.

Snapshots: Rocket, Blomqvist, Guttman

The AHL's Laval Rocket are bringing a pair of players into the Montreal Canadiens organization. They've signed one-year contracts with …

www.prohockeyrumors.com

• The Pittsburgh Penguins plan on bringing goalie prospect Joel Blomqvist to North America next season, says director of player development Tom Kostopoulos. The team’s 2020 second-round pick has played almost exclusively in Finland since being drafted, save for a few spotty appearances stateside after his season ended overseas. He took a step back last season after posting an insane .940 save percentage in 20 Liiga games in 2021-22, still managing a shutout and .907 save percentage in 21 games with Karpat. He’ll command a lot of playing time with AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton next season.

If they start Blomqvist and have Hellberg backing him up in the AHL.
Then signing Nedeljkovic, I hope that is the end of the line for DeShits.

Get up in the mornin', get on the bus
Get up in the mornin' like the rest of us
Places to go, important people to meet
Better not get up or you might lose your seat

LOL...seeing Penguin fans argue who is the better all-time Penguin behind Lemieux.

That is some real "1st world" hockey issues there.

I have Sid as a top ten player and I think that’s about as fair as can be to him. Had he not had those concussion issues and the Pens hadn’t dipped during the few years after the first Cup you might be making an argument that he’s comparable to Mario but as it is Mario takes it by far.

He's a far better player overall than Jar Jar, but god damn did I enjoy watching Jagr more.

May be true but Jagr is legendary off the ice. Sid is best known off the ice for working a Timmy’s drive thru with McKinnon.

^ Yeah Jagr is in Wilt territory. As for Sid we don't even know if he likes women.
