Do you think it's possible? (1 more Cup)

[BillyOcean]

I feel like Lars Eller and Matt Nieto will be raising the cup over their heads in about 10 months. What a steal.

 

[PensPlz]

Jarry will never win a playoff series, let alone a cup.

So Dubas signed this team's fate with that signing.

Same old Dubas.

 

[Headshot77]

It's like 5% at best.

 

[Mrs Crosby's Dryer]

I truly though so, but if the signings today are indicative of how KD will move forward I really don’t think so.

All of the FA moves (aside from Graves) so far really make it look like idiot Sullivan is still the acting GM.

Yah, you can see Sullivan's finger prints on a lot of this. The org really needed to do everything right in the last couple of days and get some luck. Some stuff went right, some stuff went wrong, and I don't see much luck in anything that happened other than maybe getting Smith.

If you're saying at the post FA presser that signing Eller was really important to your team, then you're probably screwed.

In the end, I think Dubas just didn't have enough time to really get the org under control and put together a good plan prior to this week. Then in FA he picked a few guys, Sullivan picked a few guys, and they all struck out on the goalie.

yeah agree…but who they’re spending money on in the bottom six is just ridiculous…the fact that it’s stacked again with age 30+ overpriced vets tells you that he was following Sullivan’s lead, as was Hextall…very disappointed in him…the team needed a counterbalance to Sullivan, not a yes man

 

[Sidgeni Malkby]

I have one word…
Jarry

No matter what other moves we make, Jarry is the only reason we will not be able to win another cup, or even come close. I will gladly and openly eat my words hoping that I’m wrong.

 

[HandshakeLine]

Lol, Jarry is far from the only reason this team won't win a cup. Don't kid yourself. The roster is incredibly mediocre, and that's if they're playing out of their minds.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Might as well start backing the tank up into the PPG parking lot.

We aren’t winning shit for a long long time……if ever again?

 

[Lust for Life]

Of course it's possible. Get hot at the right time.

 

[Gold Diamond]

Jarry is a 2 time all-star.

He's also an unclutch, injury prone head case.

We better be getting the former.

 

[LOGiK]

Not likely.
Not possible.
Not happening.
Will be fighting for 8th this season - if they are lucky.

Unfortunate that the playoffs aren't played in December.

We're still old - now we're old with a dogshit backup as our starter for 5 years.

I redact my original take from several days ago and now think we stand a snowballs chance in hell. At least someone like Hellebuyck could mask Sullivan's idiotic stubborness in tight series (lol...series) - Jarry and Sully are a match made in heaven for one another.

We couldn't have signed Hellebuyck.

Signing is easier than trading assets.

We ALL better hope that Jarry returns to his 2 time All-star form. No sense rooting for the latter.

Jarry has only ever 'played like an allstar' in December....he's utterly terrible from Spring forward each and every year. A. B, they HAVE to pick a player from every team in the new NHL all star format - he wouldn't have gone otherwise (coupled with injuries to some of our forwards during those years).

Dude's all star appearances are like honorary degrees. This signing is 100% on Sullivan. Dubas is a moron with anything goaltender related.

 

[PaulD]

All due respect to the once mighty Pens , but they have not won a round in five years. Can they win four in eight weeks? Absolutely not.

 

[Ugene Magic]

Possible? Yes. But it will take a lot for it to happen. It might take EK and a tweak at the deadline and a lot of win it for Karlsson.

He deserves his name on the cup, but only as a Penguin.

 

[Jobeycool]

With the right draft picks and some trades.... Yes..

 

[PaulD]

We definitely could. If we win Game 7 against NYR we have a decent path to the ECF in ‘22, so who knows?

Gotta win a playoff round first, though.

That was a tough one. Sid was the best player in the play offs until he got Trou-bed. Dominating in both ends of the rink.
And of course Jarry was mia.

With the right draft picks and some trades.... Yes..

and a new coach

 

[SomeDude]

One more Cup
Give me just one more Cup

 

[Play]

Wasn’t sure where to post it, but wow

 

[Pens x]

We desperately need a competent front office. I thought Dubas would be better. Dude sucks so far.
