Jesus...why do I feel I have to go to Pittsburgh to spell this **** out with ****ing crayons for these people?

Where does he fit in? Seriously?

Dupuis-XXXX-Bennett
Spaling-Sundqvist-Santo?

Is that even worth it? Plotnikov in the top 6? What about Tikhonov?

Just soooooooo f-ing random. He's a guy you sign July 3rd/4th when major plans have shaken out and settled. He's a hole filler...nothing more, nothing less.

Bennett should be with Malkin (he'll score more goals with Beau setting him up).

As good as Kessel is it will take most of our legit tradable assets and leave us with little cap space.

We'd also have the issue of needing one more legit top 6 LW and a top 4 D. We really wouldn't have the cash for that or assets if we wanted to trade instead of FA.

 

[Allie Kitsune]

You guys know what's going to happen, right?

Kessel is going to get traded to the Flyers. Hextall and Jarmo Kekekalalalanaianinainan will high five each other and then drop the double elbow on JR while laughing at him.

The Pens will sign Semin and take a run at TestTube.

We can have the Semin - TestTube - Horny line.

I could see something around Sutter to Edmonton for Yakupov. I wouldn't be totally opposed to:

Semin - Malkin - Yakupov

At this point, the Pens are a complete cluster****. They are like watching a train ready to run off the cliff. I don't want to watch because it's too painful

The only way that gets better is if Burkle drops a leg on JR, cups his hand to his ear, then rips off a Crosby T-Shirt only to reveal a Giroux shirt underneath.

What happens at 10?

PANDA GIF PARTY

 

[Waffle Fries]

I don't want Yakupov because the price would be prohibitive, but I don't hate the player. Yakupov is whatever, probably not what they should be looking for but not a Scuderi/Dupuis/Kunitz redux.


So, did Kessel go missing in transit or what?

He's hiding.

 

[KIRK]

Saad was worth overpaying for.

At the very least, he was worth paying a bit more than Columbus did.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

What happens at 10?

Kirk makes love to turns into a pumpkin that Kessel makes a pie out of. It's a tragomedy.

Think higher.

 

[Jaded-Fan]

Trade for Brian Strait to fix the error of letting him go cheap a few years ago. Pouliot should get it done.

 

[Pens1566]

What happens at 10?

The board turns into a prodigy bbs.

 

[Pete Gas]

I think somehow Spaling needs dealt in some way, the $2mil he's getting is robbery for what little he does

All of this. Swear to god if we waste that much effort into a guy like Santorelli. He should be plan F right now. We should still be on A and B. As in Kessel and Kessel.

I see we have reverted back to the "freak out whenever bogus rumor sites say anything" phase.

Hard times for Pens fans, Cole. JR is putting hard times on all of us.

EDIT: Speaking of IC, the time is now 10:03PM EST. Crickets.

Wait, when did we ever leave that phase?

WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT HARD TIMES?!?!

RIP Dusty. We miss you.

Quiet you . . .
