Jesus Christ that new Mackey article about Sprong is why I hate Pittsburgh media. Just some of the **** he says screams - I got told to write this so fans aren't mad we royally ****ed up.
It now makes sense why Sprong didn't shoot more. Sullivan didn't want a shooter with Sid And Geno, he wanted them to shoot more not the kid.
But he goes on to say it's because Sid And Geno didn't like playing with him is why it never worked.
What?
Did Sully and JR pay Mackey out of their own ****ing pocket?
20 Penguins Thoughts: The truth about why Daniel Sprong was traded
Nothing really new there in that article. Sprong was never a guy that played the boards well, but he’s pretty damn good at playing the give and go game. So it’s a little eye roll worthy, but a small matter because Sprong wasn’t going to be on Sullivan’s roster as I’ve said ad nauseam.
I will say the thing about the article that annoys me is that part that discusses how players Sullivan and Crosby want can play a speed game, get dirty in the corners, play a give and go game, etc... and ZAR is literally quite bad at all three aspects of these coveted traits.
But the org is determined to keep brainwashing ppl about him I guess.
