Pens Sign Yannick Weber

[Andy99]

One more injury on D and we might trade for JJ.

luckily the rules preclude it but that won’t stop JR from trying (see Hagelin)

 

[Randy Butternubs]

Since he probably doesn't live in PA or wherever the Pens are/will be, Weber also likely can't join the team right away due to COVID protocols. Having him go through waivers now saves an NHL roster spot til he can actually be with the team.

 

[ColePens]

Dylan Reese wasn't available, I guess.

 

[Andy99]

could Karl Alzner be far behind?

 

[Ryder71]

Wow, Rutherford is out!

 

[KIRK]

He and Ceci will look good taking a regular shift behind L2.

 

[Woodrow]

Wow We really have the bad defensemen market cornered.

 

[Tom Hanks]

Desperate times when 5 of your D men go down

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Weber sucked 10 years ago, I wonder how bad he is now.

 

[McDrailers]

Dylan Reese wasn't available, I guess.

GM mode joke.

I respect that.

 

[The Old Master]

i'm at the point that i would not mind seeing us go with 4 forwards and 1 defenseman till we start getting players back. the forwards can't be worse at playing "d" than some of the guys we have now and they should be better at offense.

 

[Sidgeni Malkby]

Wow! You think we would be used to this by now .

Probably not a good sign for Dumo.

Well Dumoulin wasn't good news when he was on the ice either.

 

[Mario_is_BACK!!]

Really hasn't physically recovered from that ankle, that's for sure.

 

[Tom Hanks]

Well Dumoulin wasn't good news when he was on the ice either.

Dumo could play big minutes against quality competition and not hurt the team though. We were still out-chancing teams when he was on the ice. So while he wasn’t great it wasn’t hurting us too much

A good opportunity for blokes like Petts and Riikola as well as Matheson if either were healthy. But for now let's see how POJ handles more ice time and if Weber handling the 3rd pair with Ruhwedel. Ceci should sit for Czuczman.

Weber and Ruh are both righty’s. I think the lineup will just be flipping coins to see who lands where

For some reason I thought this was another lefty. Odd to add another right handed defenseman.

Marino injury and he’s probably the quickest available D men who won’t be a complete disaster (we hope)

They’ll still be looking for help I’d imagine or a LHD man can come back soon

I didn't catch the Marino injury. Makes sense.

Yup d man number 2-6 injured lol

Naw, he’s like a wine they gets better with age!
