Even some of the moves that were lambasted at first, like acquiring Mike Matheson this past offseason, end up turning out okay in the end.

Seriously I spit my coffee out reading that.

Whoever talks with him just better make sure they have a stockpile of draft picks is all I’m saying.

Must be grading it on the "Jack Johnson relative disaster" scale.

Well, when you put it like that, umm....nope. Matheson still sucks.

My guilty penguins pleasure is that I actually like Matheson and his play.

Meh, that’s cool. I remember being a fan of Deryk Engelland when most wanted him run out of town. Mostly I liked his story of his journey to the NHL maybe.

My main problem with Matheson is he’ll make a great offensive play then almost immediately follow it up with a defensive play that just leaves ya like

You misspelled Letang.

Sorry, etang

They really are pretty much interchangeable aren’t they

Contract extensions for etang / Makin and has full confidence in Jarry. Yep I guess they really don't want to win for many years to come.

I can see it now he will hire Robby Brown to coach this team so that he can fire him after a few months.

Funny I liked Engelland a lot also.

A few years prior the same with Alain Nasreddine. He was god awful but something about the long journey made me a fan.

And going way back when they traded Scott Young for Bryan Fogarty I loved that trade. At the time he would really pan out (ie turn his life around), unfortunately not knowing how bad his demons were beyond repair. As for Young, he went on to have some great seasons after leaving Pittsburgh.
