Dubas right now:
Try and keep this one on topic please.
View attachment 729673Saw this posted on reddit. MM was also the first one to say that Dubas was gonna sign. If Pens are the only team in it, Dubas must not be offering much so Grier is holding out.
Lol at caring what any Pittsburgh writers, let alone Robert Rossi, say about a potential trade. How has he been right about his Karlsson reporting? Because nothing has happened? Does that mean he was right on his Yandle reporting since nothing happened there either?
He knows the same amount as any of us: jack **** until a real news breaker reports something.
I have no doubt EK will waive for here. And we are a better fit than Carolina demand want him more. It's the trading a HOF player for a poo poo platter + retaining $3+ million on his salary that will make Sharks ownership/management/fans barf to the point where they convince themselves to not take the harsh medicine. That is where we are at.
Also regarding the Sparks contract, the Penguins are going to have to move DeSmith to become cap compliant so I think he’s another guy on the depth chart. I imagine their goalie depth next year is going to be:
Pittsburgh: Jarry and Nedjelkovic
WBS: Hellberg, Gauthier and Blomqvist
Wheeling: Sparks and Nappier
Dubas has made an emphasis on having extra goalie depth and having a tandem of Sparks and Nappier as your ECHL goalies is exactly that. You might see one of Blomqvist or Gauthier shuffle between WBS and Wheeling to get more games as needed (with Sparks coming up when one of them goes down), but I think this is going to be the general layout.
