[Honour Over Glory]

Glad JR didn't go full on idiot and give up a ton to get Duchene, although I was hoping for Landeskog or Kane.

 

[Shady Machine]

Tim Murray is an idiot

 

[Asuna]

so since they traded fehr and brought up a dman, who takes fehr's spot?

just going to run 7 d?

 

[deakka]

I bet MAF is in tonight. And hes probably rewarding us for not tradig him by letting in 6+ goals.

Wouldn't surprise me at all.
Luckily the 7/11 is still open. Still time to get that bottle

 

[JTG]

I think the summer before the expansion draft will be a real good time to watch.

 

[ObsessedCreative*]

We get not only OLDER, we get SLOWER!!!! WOOOOOOO WHAT CAN GO WRONG... I wish we didnt do anything more than Heinsey. UGH

 

[HandshakeLine]

Corrado?

 

[Empoleon8771]

so since they traded fehr and brought up a dman, who takes fehr's spot?

just going to run 7 d?

Rowney takes his spot tonight and in the long run.

 

[tom_servo]

Feels good being a contender with decent prospects and cap room coming up.

 

[YungDankShawty]

Could've been a lot worse. Addressed our depth on the blue line without giving up anything significant.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

I figured they'd end up adding some defensive depth but I'm annoyed at losing some C depth and Bonino sucking makes that more worrying. Corrado I'm moderately happy about, maybe they can make something decent out of him as their new project.

 

[Shady Machine]

We get not only OLDER, we get SLOWER!!!! WOOOOOOO WHAT CAN GO WRONG... I wish we didnt do anything more than Heinsey. UGH

Who made us slower?

 

[PensArmy]

I thought we might do Maatta for e.kane
Pretty lousy trade dead line day

 

[Lustaf]

Well here's to the next dream.. That flower waives his NTC so we don't have to protect him or buy him out. Yea.......

 

[Shady Machine]

I figured they'd end up adding some defensive depth but I'm annoyed at losing some C depth and Bonino sucking makes that more worrying. Corrado I'm moderately happy about, maybe they can make something decent out of him as their new project.

Maybe Sunny will get a look at some point.

 

[Asuna]

Rowney takes his spot tonight and in the long run.

oh ya forgot he was still up

 

[Jacob]

We get not only OLDER, we get SLOWER!!!! WOOOOOOO WHAT CAN GO WRONG... I wish we didnt do anything more than Heinsey. UGH

Not really. Streit's more mobile than Fehr.

 

[billybudd]

Frankie Corrado sounds like the name of an actor in spaghetti Westerns.

Edit: or a 1970s body builder

 

[JTG]

Feels good being a contender with decent prospects and cap room coming up.

It is a weird spot to be in. There is not a ton of fat on this roster going into next season.

 

[EliteGoaltending]

Empoleon8771, I'm not mad about the deals. For me it's like whatever. It was my response to people who think that picks are overrated.
In my opinion JR often overpays/slightly overpays in his deals. But it's just my opinion, I'm not saying everyone should think so.

 

[Empoleon8771]

So let's recap. Here's what the Penguins did:

-Got rid of a cap problem they had in Fehr
-Got rid of a bad player problem they had in Olesky
-Brought in a 23 year old D prospect that fits the system for basically a 4th
-Brought in a 39 year old PPQB for a 4th next year
-Brought in a steady 35 year old defensive D for a 2nd this year

So why are people complaining about this deadline? They cut some of the dead weight on their roster and fixed their D depth for basically nothing outside of the 2nd round pick.

 

[canadianguy77]

Feels good being a contender with decent prospects and cap room coming up.

Would have felt better having a legitimate chance at stopping Washington on their way to a cup.

 

[Asuna]

i assume sullivan had some input about corrado, back in vancouver

 

[Pick87your71Poison]

For people complaining, look at who was traded. Outside of grabbing Duchene which a lot of teams tried and couldn't, what exactly did you want? Not many teams did much of anything to improve dramatically. Complaining about being underwhelmed is one thing but who did you want that was actually available and moved?

Ott, King, Iginla, Lazar... these are the types of guys that were moved and there was little activity. I can't imagine the reaction if we grabbed those guys.
