Seems they may prefer Kuhnackl for his PK'ing ability. Welp, all i can say is be better Kuhn. These better teams coming up will chew up that 4th line. Like the other lines tho. And Sheary does need a HS'ing.
And yea, more Letang shots off shin pads on PP1 coming.

Sheary and Wilson the extra skaters? Sheary could maybe use a "wake up call", but has Wilson really been as bad?

Imagine if we didn't sign Sheary and used that $3M on a center.
Of all of the dumb things I've seen on this website, suggesting not signing Sheary after he was coming off a season with a 70 point pace while he was a RFA is pretty high up there.

Or you sign Sheary and use him as an asset...

If you were a GM, your asset management would be horrible.

As long as Schultz is on it, the other 4 people who draw duties won't really much matter. He's miles above Letang it kind of makes me sick

I wonder what it would take to make Schultz our de facto #1 PPQB. Apparently regularly outperforming Letang there isn't reason enough.

Letang's career being over and no one wants that. If Letang is playing there will always be that treatment. He'll start there and if he sucks enough to be taken off it he'll be back at the first hint of a struggle. Schultz has to be pissed about it.

A real jerk thing
Letang's problem is he's such a freak of nature that his 5v5 production is fine and good, but he's just a moron on the man advantage, or anything that requires a shred of thinking. But because he produces well, he's paid through the roof which means that the team is going to keep sticking him on the PP even though there's better options.
Or maybe Letang is legitimately dumber than a bag of hammers and they've been trying to convince him not to play on the power play for years and he just keeps hopping over the boards anyway.

Sully's gonna win 4 Jack Adams for finally figuring out that Letang is basically a toddler. And rightfully so.

I'm sure that's how they see it, but it's counter-intuitive. Letang's locked in for a long time...they can use him as they see fit. It's not like he's an impending UFA that they have to coddle in order to get him to re-sign.

Which I totally agree with and wish they would just take him off the damn first PP because we have a legit PPQB in Schultz.
Letang is such a phenomenal talent and not awful on the PP overall, but he's not GOOD there. It's just perplexing. He's had moments the last few seasons when he's been shooting more and getting more pucks on net thanks to the coaching staff, but good lord, does he look like he needs a month or two of work with Gonch right now.

Do you really want to see Gonchar kill a man?
I still like my shock collar idea. One zap for a double clutch. Two for a triple clutch. You duct tape the button down when he triple clutches and bashes it off a shinguard.
