I don't share (just don't care that much) in a lot of the visceral hatred many have for Yohe and Rossi, but you're right, this take is f-ing embarrassing. Rob now holds himself out as the aribiter of "vitriolic behavior" for the Pennsylvania NHL fan community? One would have hoped before he posted this, a circuit breaker would have interrupted the process with a "Yo, Rob, you're really not going to tweet such childish shit, are you?" Poor guy...
That's really bad news for a guy who's so unlikable.
Not a fan of this whole trend of openly detailing sexual preferences, and it goes back to Seinfeld. Ninety-five percent of the population is in no position to be having sex.
If I had to know you guys do too
Your post count is giving me the ick, no offense.
I personally judge like count to posts ratio before I’ll even consider sex…
This take is so spot on it’s embarrassing for them. They routinely called for Hextall’s head, I think in part cause he was abrasive with the press and gave them nothing, so the hypocrisy is through the roof. If anything the worse part is the hypocrisy
If Yohe reported it, then the opposite is true.Yohe chimes in. Take it for what it's worth.
There’s no rift between Sullivan and Dubas. It’s been reported elsewhere that there is. Those reports are laughably false.
Perhaps they didn’t agree on the Reirden decision. That’s quite possible. But I assure you they have a very good working relationship and are very much on the same page. Anything else that you read is utterly untrue.

After the Kessel trade to the Yotes, Yohe thought the penguins got a great return in Galchenyuk. All Yohe and Rossi care about is their free dinners in the media room at PPG paint arena.
I never once believed Sullivan would be fired after this season. But with the way Dubas immediately fired the WBS coaches plus now it seems like he always wanted to fire Reirden for a while now, I do think that if we start out slow next season, firing Sullivan is absolutely on the table.Friedman/Marek touch on Sullivan on 32 Thoughts. Note that this was recorded before Reirden was officially dismissed.
Friedman believes Sullivan is staying. He said someone compared the situation to when Dubas became GM in Toronto and inherited Mike Babcock, who was an established coach with deep ties. Friedman said Babcock and Dubas had to work together, though eventually Babcock got fired. Friedman doesn't think that's on the radar right now, but that it's a similar feeling out process where Dubas and Sullivan are sorting out how it will all work.

I think it was always more likely to be after at least a full year of Dubas being in charge. Dubas has always had the power to fire Sullivan, but he probably feels he needs to have shown the steps taken prior to that move in order to get full support from FSG. If this team stinks in December, he'll be able to say that they've had two full offseasons to try to reshape the team, they've added a new assistant, etc. and the results are still the same or worse, so it's time to make a grander change.
