I wait anxiously to see what draft pick penalty is assessed against the Pens for tampering.

(Yes, I know they were given permission to speak to Dubas after he was fired, but I am confident they engaged in conversations a week ago. Between Monday press conference and the contract demands subsequently given by Dubas)

All kidding aside, at this time it seems:

  • Ownership is satisfied with Shanahan
  • Shanahan was satisfied with Dubas
  • There were discussions about if/how to make changes
  • Shanny and Kyle did not agree on a path forward

What we dont know right now is: were there specific players the 2 disagreed on, and, Keefe's status

The most straightforward explanation is that Shanny had definite ideas on what needed to change and Kyle strongly disagreed with some or all of it.

If Treliving is the next GM and with his recent “success” in Calgary I would suffice to say this gif might be relevant here also?



Really can’t use any bad gifs for the Penguins GM search because they set the bar pretty low.
