GDT: Penguins Trade Deadline discussion thread

[PensBandwagonerNo272*]

Not sure why there needs to be two threads

 

[PensBandwagonerNo272*]

Matthias is RFA, does he cost us one of our very good D-prospects.

I think he might. I'm thinking, Bortuzzo. Maybe Dumoulin?

He's playing really well for a rebuilding Florida team. Not happening.

One is for us.

The other one is for those people who have herpes play for some other team.








Herpes.

Yeah pretty much. If they would deal him for bortuzzo, their gm should be fired on the spot.

Herpes.

And now you know why I post in both

 

[Bennett Brauer]

I don't expect Shero to make another trade. Though I do think bottom 6 depth could be a plus.

 

[Guins71]

My only wish for today is puck possession for 3rd or 4th line. They could use a good board player with some speed.

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

I don't see Shero doing anything major today, maybe acquire a forward to help out in the AHL?

TO Pittsburgh Penguins: ???

TO Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins: Tanner Glass

 

[Bennett Brauer]

I want to see if there was some truth to the Jeffrey for Pyatt rumor that TIOPS reported. I know people don't trust them, but Pyatt's a pretty good depth center.

TO Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins: Tanner Glass

I think future considerations would be a good return.

I was talking about someone with a bit of talent

 

[ColePens]

And those futures can be Beau and the gang.

Tanner Glass, Tyler Kennedy for Beau Bennett???

Saw a lot of him in Montreal a few years ago and he does his job very well, great skater and solid PKer. I believe he was on the Habs that beat the Pens back in 2010

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

Tanner Glass, Tyler Kennedy for Beau Bennett???

That sounds like a good deal to me

Honestly Shero should waive Glass, trade Kennedy for a pick and call up Bennett tomorrow

That's his job today

I think a tremendous move for us would be to obtain Adam Hall off waivers and trade/waive Glass.

Then you make a line of. K-Hall-Adams. With Vitale the next in line. Hall is great with faceoffs and PKs rather well IIRC. Gives the 4th energy and a little skill.

Anything to get Glass off the ice. Even a TK-Vitale-Adams line would suit

 

[Darth Vitale]

One player I want to eventually become a Penguin is Mathias from Florida. That guy IS Penguins hockey. He'd be damn good here.

Keep dreaming, but yah that would be good. Unless Tallon has a major brain cramp, that kid isn't going anywhere. Not sure where he'd slot in though. He's seems like overkill to be a 4C (unless we get him some real wingers too and not pieces of crap like Glass / Adams / Kennedy), and he's not taking Sutter's job.

Bennett - Matthias - Vitale could be pretty lethal for a 4th line.

Didn't Adam Hall get claimed by The Canes and then traded back to Tampa Bay yesterday?

Any combination of Adams, Jeffrey, Vitale, Bennett and TK would upgrade our 4th line. Every single one. They are all just better at hockey than Glass is.

and then immediately waived.

 

[PensBandwagonerNo272*]

Adam Hall: "I'm pretty sure he'd be a great fit on the last forward line! But no I don't want to play him."

 

[Tender Rip]

I think he's been pretty good so far too, Cole. And he's going to be a pain in the playoffs over a 7 game series. The more guys like that you have, the better.

It's just predictable how everyone here goes overboard following a loss (to end the 2nd longest winning streak in the NHL, mind you). Fairweather is too kind a word, sometimes.

Or perhaps some of us who did not feel god about Morrow to begin with see with us the same player who was mediocre for Dallas, and think him not needed... or worse yet believe that in getting him, what will really be accomplished by dealing Joe Morrow will be that Bennett does not play in the playoffs.

The problem with Morrow isn't that he looks BAD. He doesn't. To me the problem is that he looks very meh! I see him battle, but I don't see him winning him battles. Again, that will hopefully change. Early days and all. Anyway. No biggie in the greater scheme if things.

 

[eco's bones]

wrong thread

Neither Kreider or McIlrath are going anywhere. McIlrath may turn out to be a bigger, better, meaner version of Engelland. The Rangers need that--so do 29 other teams.

 

[namsnoodle]

Well it's being mentioned that they may look to make one more move. If that is actually the case, I hope Glass gets traded in the process.
