No idea, but he posted the Dreger clip I was talking about.

Tsn now confirming the Bonino trade call hasn't happened

Wonder if this is part of the new talks with Van

I mean, even if the Pens offered it, it shouldn’t be too shocking considering the NYR package from last deadline which was their 2022 1st, Lundqvist, and Chytil. About the same value as Pens’ two 1sts.

That sounds better—you hope your lmid to late firsts become a player as good as Chytil.

Realizing that the original Bonino for Sutter deal was a mistake, they will now try to acquire Bonino to be their 3rd line center so as to compete next year.

Probably.

Hypothetically if it’s Pettersson, do the Pens internally believe POJ/Smith are good enough to make him expendable?

Not yet at least. Pens have three top4 D—Pettersson, Letang and Petry.

Granlund/Bonino/Kulikov should be an insult to the core if those are the adds.

Is this guy credible? Sad

Penguins beat writer. Pens fans should know.

 

[LemonSauceD]

Garland for Pettersson now?

No one in the Pittsburgh sports media has a clue what they are talking about anymore.

 

[Canadian Canuck]

Is this guy credible? Sad

Not that credible at all. Pens sports media isn't the most knowledgable/have the best insight.

There's no room to do anymore. Nail was in the coffin when Granlund was acquired

Ok...? Maybe it's just in que

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Hilarious that this is what, the fifth year this sort of rumour has popped up and nothing has come of it.

Yeah you were right but it was just tsn saying it was odd

Sounds official now

I mean there's a way. Just not the smart way. But there's a way. Especially if you drop Rust to the third line and move out Heinen, there's a need for a LW that can score and Doc is getting there but not yet. If they aren't upgrading on Heinen then yeesh.

It's a done deal.

 

[Diogenes92]

Its funny fans keep thinking that Van should and want to move Miller when they just signed him and chose him over Horvat to be a key C going forward. Of course they are wanting a C back to maintain that plan

Their "plan" sucks. It's embarrassing actually.

Fans want a different thing than they do, so of course there are going to be differing opinions on philosophy.

 

[Lemieuxs]

Canucks could have helped themselves out a lot more going into this summer.... Oh well.

 

[Ninjadude]

Sounds like Management has a plan.

We may not agree, but they have a plan.

The unfortunate part...the plan sucks.

 

[Lara Emily]

Yeah this shit ain't happening

 

[Hockey4Lyfe]

If the Penguins traded Rakell or Petersson for an 8 year contract of JT Miller, for myself as a fan, it would be 2 minutes of mother f’ing everything in existence.

But after that two minutes, I would go and read through the Penguins board because it would be f***ing epic to sit through.

 

[Lemieuxs]

Canucks failed

File this under "things to watch in the offseason" IMO.
