Pittsburgh Penguins Prospects Thread

Poulin’s point streak ended.

1000% our fault. Got ahead of ourselves.

I mostly blame @Peat tho

Glad he’s still a Pen though. I was a little worried.

Guess who had the more productive first ECHL season.

Can't be Almeida, that would be just sad (I also remember CPZ having a decent first year in the E).

You would be correct. A career ECHL player did substantially better.

Silver lining. Drozg, while not tearing things up in the AHL, has the best ppg and has stuck longer than both... combined. Including CPZ’s entire career. Best 1st ECHL season ppg out of those 3, too. You go, Jan.

Uh uh, it was Empo was last brought up one and done, its all his fault now.

The Legare highlights:

Another hat trick for Légaré! Foreurs 3 Drakkar 6 – LHJMQ

I'm diggin' this never seen before bench press celebration.

Légaré scores 3 goals! Foreurs 3 Drakkar 7 – LHJMQ

That last one was a beauty. Looks fast in that one.

Translation: Jesper Sellgren makes 3-0 to Luleå, played by Filip Hållander.

He's fitting right in with the Penguins then...

We should have known. He’s a penguin and the last time his production dropped he was hurt.

Caulfied goal.




Reilly with an assist.

 

[Tom Hanks]

Is he doing a PMart impression

Reilly got his 20th point of the season last night.

Pens need to be aggressive with college guys like the D man from ASU. Need to add RH D men big time in the system.

You mean like Joshua Maniscalco? If so, yes he's been terrific this year and I think he would instantly become our best prospect on D.

I had him in the 2nd round prior to the 2017 draft, then he had a down year in the USHL and any hype around him vanished. The potential is obviously still there and I'd love to take a flyer on him.

Pens just need to begin the re stocking of the farm system. How long have I been saying that? But yes the ASU D man is a nice add. Hopefully the brass doesn't want the all in yearly march to the potential cup to be the mantra. Trades at the draft to replenish picks and come to the realization even with a healthy Jake back and clearing cap room is not going to change the facts Sid and Geno are not 82 gamers anymore.

This is our 82 gamers the last 6 seasons

Jake (2 times)
Phil (4 times)
Olli, JJ, Sid,Horny, Cullen, Spalling, Scuderi, Adams (1 time)

Hoping for Rutherford to put restocking the farm system as a priority when we are headed for the playoffs every year is like hoping an elephant steps on your foot - extraordinarily unlikely to happen and an utterly baffling wish to just about everyone else.

These guys are useful as assets to get win-now guys. And/or be entry-level contracts which offset the high-priced guys. Think of how much option value John Marino created with his play this year and his <$1m contract.

Oh absolutely. But you can't use them as assets to get win-now guys and prioritise re-stocking the farm system at the same time, because obviously using them as assets subtracts from the farm. One thing has to win out there, and it's win-now.

William Reilly has two assists already and there's still 20 minutes to play.

Someone is finishing his season strong.



It looks like their Twitter skipped the 2nd goal and therefor his 2nd assist.

I'm watching OSU-Wisc game. I love college hockey.
