Penguins offseason thread

[thehobocop]

He's not blocking anyone, as their best prospect is still 2 years away at least. And there isn't much out there as far as goalies go. Don't see a reason too, unless you get blown away by an offer, which is not likely.

Plus I don't think trading Neal is "blowing up the team" obviously he's a valuable commodity but it's not like we trade Sid or Geno

im not counting on anything.....Im asking

A kid right out of Europe in the first round, about as much a 'not a Ray Shero' pick as there ever could be, right or wrong.

Doubtful, but wouldn't be against it. Would be selling high on a guy who is getting older, coming off a career year, and signed far too long.

Really good pick. Most scouting services had him in their top 10

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Might as well trade Kuni & have SidGeno fake injuries for next season. I don't see us competing for sh*t besides draft positioning.

Ooh a skilled forward in the first round? That would be a welcomed change of pace

Kapanen might be undersized but those Fins give you everything they got. Can't wait to see what he 'll do.

Ya I liked that draft pick for you guys

Thanks dude, I do too. Nice change of pace from drafting a dman we'll never see making it to the NHL. Finally after all these years a skilled forward

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

I think we got a good one guys, I really like what I see here…

Basically a faster version of James Neal with a right handed shot.

I'm fine with trading MAF, I love him to death but it's time to take on a new direction, and that direction is Connor McDavid…

Keep Sid & Geno, trade away the rest, draft Connor McDavid, and we're back to competing for the CUP, not the division, but the CUP!

In his defense, he's only 17. Still time for him to grow.

you need a goaltender

 

[scoutyjones2]

We have a goaltender...the best in Pens history. No need to change.

Glad to see KNeel gone and I like the 2 players but expected a bit more

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

First we need to draft McDavid, then worry about the rest.

Very true, I like what I see from him, a good right handed shooter is what we need as well.
