I am POSITIVE it is frustrating playing w/ Horny, but when that guy muscles a puck into the net, everyone wins.

Benn loves to prey on non fighters. Then acts like some tough shit when he fights them. He's garbage.

Thing is Horny plays a straight north-south game. If anyone is trying to use him as anything else that's their fault. You can't grab a hammer and be mad it won't work like a saw.

As well as going into a puck battle with 3 others and clearing it from the D zone

Hornqvist had 17 goals in 52 games here last season and people acted like he was done and declining lol.

Not me, I was fine keeping him until the bitter end. When our team pulls their normal p***y wah wah shit he says STFU BITCHES!!!! and just goes.

I remember counting one day how many times he won battles he had no reason to win. He just is relentless. I understand Kessel and Horny were luxuries to a team like ours and how they were built. But losing both has been significant. I get the Kessel idea. We all knew it was coming. I thought it wasn't there quite yet for Hornqvist. I think we need him.

I think at least hanging on to him until the expansion summer made sense. I was all for moving McCann and promoting Blue as the 3c and E-Rod as the 4c. Horny would have been with Blueger then.
But shit changed. Sadly.

JR leaving so quickly adds salt to that wound.
His analytics were declining but I know @Honour Over Glory is quick to use the term “usage” to dump on Sully but I’d agree in this case.
He’s a top 6 player and we know Sid doesn’t like him on his line but Sully would throw him up there to stir things up when it wasn’t going well. He always had good results with Geno. Can play in the bottom 6 but last season there were too many off mixes with his line.
Obviously I’d have kept him over taking an unnecessary risk on Matheson. You know he will help the PP, can play well with either Sid/Geno and is capable of playing a good role in the bottom 6 in the right circumstances.
If anyone disagrees with this just leave it there. I try to stay out some of the Hornqvist debates in other threads. This is just a praise from me and we’d be better not making that deal especially having Dumo, Petts, Riikola and some thought POJ was ready on LD.

The Hornqvist worship has been the thing that has made me the most upset this season, and Malkin is my favorite player.

Every goal he scores? I'm not even watching the game. I love talking about Patric Hornqvist. This was before he was even a penguin. My buddy and I would watch Nashville games. We really enjoyed the way he played.
Oh and look at that.. this is the "around the NHL" thread. Where we are to discuss players not on the Pens. Hmmm.

Only until JR trades Matheson for Hornqvist.

I'll say this about Hornqvist
It would have been REALLY f***ING nice if he would have played like this here more recently

Pretty much. Also, I find it funny no mods are getting all upset about people continually bringing up Hornqvist and Kessel like they did with Sprong
Say what you will about Hornqvist. Kapanen and Rust have been much better and cost much less then Hornqvist was for us.
It’s funny a lot of us were super concerned about RW, but our top six LWs have been the disasters.
Although Zucker plays real similar to Hornqvist IMO
