Hmm, sell. Just because I shudder thinking of Tocchet as an interim coach. MJ will get another season again barring a massive collapse.

Buy/sell: Perron will be a third liner on the team and dealt around the trade deadline.

Sell, Perron is bouncing back and will be a key guy in the top 6.

Buy/Sell: our powerplay will be the best in the league.

Eh, sell. It'll be jacked for sure but I think they'll still pass too much to be #1.

Two of Andersen/Erixon/Clendening and Dumoulin all have breakout years, forcing the Pens to get rid of Lovejoy/Scuderi and roll 7D.

I think Jacques Martin would be a more likely interim than Tocchet. I still don't get the org's man crush on him; when Downie was around he was sorta semi-useful, but with Downie no longer around.....

Sell, only Dumoulin has a realistic chance of doing that even though i like Erixon.

In his next press conference Mario Lemieux's speech will include at least two "obviously" (obviously).

Biggity Biggity Buy.

Buy / Sell: Phil Kessel fights someone in defense of Crosby, in his uniquely awesome way.

Maatta comes back without skipping a beat.

Sell: I think MAF's stats will suffer because the defense in front of him is truly abysmal outside of the first pairing. Even if we split up Letang and Maatta, we don't have anyone who is good enough to move up. It's two first pairing guys and a bunch of 3rd pairing guys.

Buy/Sell; Malkin or Crosby win the Art Ross by 10+ points with the new top six and PP combinations.

Buy.

Though MAF still did well even having Lovejoy and others in the top four. I don't think he suffers.

Buy/Sell: The Pens have more than three in the Allstar game?

Buy. Literally. This is the only one I'd put money on. Kid is a warrior.

Buy/sell Kunitz picks up pk minutes.

Sell, there's only so many stars per team that can represent & Fleury would have to show better than his last season .920% to be there (while having a suspect D in front of him).

The PP falters again but Tocchet stays because... buddy.

Buy! Better than seeing him with PP minutes!

As for my question, see my previous post.

Sell, Tocchet gives way to Martin who stays behind the bench along with MJ instead.

Gordie comes around to respect Perron after his 60 point season.

Sell, Clarkie hates us so bad he specifically designed his team to beat us even though it makes the Flyers a FAIL team in general.

Cullen gets 54+% on FO.

Mike Lange Version 2 · Aug 8, 2015

Buy: 54.5%

Buy/Sell: Kessel gets 90 points?

Sell. Scoring is just too hard these days.

Buy or Sell: Plotnikov scores 20 goals or 45 points.

Conditional Buy/Sell:

Buy - He's top 6 next to Geno+whoever.

Sell - He's on the 4th line with Cullen and...whoever.

tom_servo · Aug 8, 2015

OK....

Buy or sell: Beau Bennett finishes the season in a Penguins jersey (and not on IR).

Buy- It's his last chance, and hopefully the new conditioning coaches are better.

Buy/Sell- Farnham plays in over 30 games.

Sell, i love the guy but we're in trouble if he plays 30+, play him in all the games against the Cryers, Jets & Blue Jackets though.

Buy/Sell: Bobby Clarke will insult the Pens again.

PensBandwagonerNo272* · Aug 10, 2015

Sell: At some point, yup. Probably not this year though. I don't see the Flyers being overly competitive.

Buy/Sell: Pouliot scores at least 30 points this season.

Buy. As long as he plays 75+ games.

Buy or Sell: Fehr plays 3RW if/when we have a fully healthy forwards group. (Probably with Bonino and Kunitz/Dupuis)
