All-encompassing anti-Pittsburgh thread

[StateofCelly]

I can't remember what show it was this AM on my drive in listening to NHL Network radio, but they were talking about the Pens situation and said that from what Burke has said already (it was some sports writer from Pitt) that their focus is 2021-2022 season and how they can get younger, and they have a different identity they want the team to take on. So he thought they would look to acquire prospects and picks and fast track the dynamic kind of like Hextall did in Philly and that is the blueprint they want to use. They would play this year out and focus on next.. so who knows, a few more losses to push them out and things could get wild.

Imagine how badly he would have overpaid Granlund

i dont think he wouldve resigned him tbh, doesnt really fit the "guerin type"

3 point game for NYR and BOS?

You’ve got to be kidding me. Malkin ties it with 18 seconds left...

Welcome to watching PIT lol

As long as the penguins miss the playoffs I’ll be happy. There are some players I really like in the 8-15 range this year.

From Pittsburgh radio show:




2 1sts for Greenway?

Throw in foligno for a 2nd

Death, Taxes, and Burke loving big slow mean players.

That Hornquist trade must be frustrating for them.

You'd have to think about trading Foligno for a 2022 1st, IMO, but I bet that Guerin wouldn't do it. Also, won't Hextall be the guy to do the trades, not Burke?

Anyone that would have to think about that from the Wild's perspective, has no business getting paid to be involved with hockey.

Sunday's action: Washington 3 at Pittsburgh 6
Dang!

 

[Gurglesons]

Zucker ain’t working out right now so..

 

[57special]

I actually thought he played decently, but he and Malkin just don't seem to be on the same page. Oh, and Malkin is not looking good.
Right now, Zucker looks like a good checking line forward.

Glad we paid a 1st and Addison for a 3rd liner.

 

[AKL]

Me too.

 

[16thOverallSaveUs]

Pretty good night as the caps, Islanders, and devils (not yet, but up 4-2 late in 3rd), all teams fighting with Pittsburgh for a playoff spot, get points. Pittsburgh does not.

 

[Gurglesons]

The only enjoyment I get from the Pens these days is you guys being happy about us losing and Bryan Rust.

 

[57special]

Am I crazy, or does Matheson have a chance to be be Schultz 2.0? The man can skate and handle the puck... just needs to stop doing dumb shit. Schultz was a mess when he first came to PIT, wasn't he?

 

[TaLoN]

Yay! Regulation loss!

Pittsburgh on the outside looking in!

He does, he’s always been gifted offensively but his D game was always horrendous. He went the college route partly to take time on that aspect.

Pittsburgh fans are tired of Zucker not being good / pulling disappearing act

What does that have to do with Matheson?
