I wasn’t sure if you guys were aware but Pens scouts have been at a bunch o Canucks games.
That bulk package of stuff you won’t really miss wouldn’t get it done though.
Maybe I don't like either coach. Which would be true. The fact that muppets here hang on to regular season success is why I mentioned Disco. Disco was better and did more with losing his big 3 and whack winger depth, during the regular season.
Sully had it good and then completely lost the plot after the Caps loss.
It's the JR Pf Chang's special of shit he likes. Aka his shit.
He can go f*** himself and take his shit for better wares. He owes us for how he f***ed the pooch here with the cap and assets.
Also Kapanen isn't bulk package. ZAR is solid defensively, your team sucks ass defensively.
Edit : you're maybe right. Who would need a player that is good defensively and is on a top 3 pk unit. Definitely not the worst pk team in the league with a minus 8 differential.

They're huge and use that size too. Whoever gets them in R1 will come out battered.
Dallas and LA had their way with us and their defense and forwards weren't as heavy as the NYR.
I'd be more worried about the useless sack the first line is. Geno will produce regardless of his wingers but the first line in the playoffs the last 3 seasons isn't a one off. That might be a trend and maybe they break out of it. But if they aren't getting Geno a proper winger that also helps Kapanen on the line too, they're f***ed because Sully will freeze with his line up like usual.
LMAO.
Kapanen does nothing for Vancouver. Nothing in the offer fills a need. Other teams would beat it. Sorry if that hurts your feelings.
but ok. Just argue your take I guess.
Other teams also know Boeser's rfa issue. Your team is boned Cap wise.
Enjoy. We don't really think about you lot at all. But Brock probably wishes he can play with his mate, Jake.
Brock's style would work with Geno and might be worth his QO. Only teams that would afford Brock's QO aren't teams that will give up much because they'll be rebuilding themselves. So those teams will also want to dump salary.
I think what Geno's line is missing isn't a Neal. Kapanen can shoot. It's a Jokinen type. A smart playmaker that is also defensively responsible.
Of the non playoff teams, who's out there the Pens can get even as a rental?
Edit:
Vladimir Namestnikov - fits the bill, although not physical and might make the line soft according to some here, but smart at both ends, gold hands with playmaking and Ufa. He can also play LW/C.
Nick Paul - Big and physical and he plays the pk. More of a playmaker in the NHL but less consistent than Namestnikov. Also a free agent at end of season and could be a good add for Geno's line with being able to play LW/C. He's been mentioned by a lot here as well.
If it's Paul I'd want to get Josh Brown as well as a depth 7th RHD rental. For the size queen's, Paul and Brown fit the bill. Namestnikov adds more skill than Paul but Paul could be what Geno needs and he has decent hands.
Paul-Malkin-Kapanen has a better mix than what he's getting.
But I kind of like Namestnikov. He's fast, smart, has better numbers and is also a very good player on both special teams and he's not as soft as he's made to seem.
Marchand vs Namestnikov
Now team mates lol
Namestnikov-Malkin-Kapanen - This helps all involved.
Actually the more I think about it the more I'd be down with Namestnikov being the lad they trade for as a rental. He's smarter with the puck than Nick Paul, offensive hockey IQ is better. Geno deserves that much.
