Cool. Guess there was not much to that rumor?

 

[Crossbar]

So what ended up becoming of the accusations?

 

[letsgrowcactus]

Man he really does love matheson.

The Penguins look pretty terrible here. Rumored to hire a guy who just put the finishing touches on a giant turd in South Florida with some allegations of racial misconduct as GM in the bubble along with that. Lmao

Okay so DT wasn’t guilty of racist, religious or ethnic comments, but he WAS guilty of incompetent picks, common sense defying contracts and one particular expansion draft from hell.
