EVIL LAUGH
As the title says, it's leading into the TDL. Pick who you want out, post who you want in.

Weird how players are consistently doing this here.
Anyway, McGinn is actually our best PKer so there should be no reason to scratch him.
He'd be my 3rd choice, but one that wouldn't bother me at all. Archibald is back to PK now.
I think McGinn would work fine offensively if given linemates who can possess the puck and pass it well. Carter ain't that.
McGinn's a finisher. He's not a puck possession guy. Get him someone who can get him the puck in space and he'll use that wicked shot effectively.
ROR has always been an elite defensive C, Brassard not quite. Depends on the price and if ROR has lingering injury issues like Brassard though.
Yeah but McGinn eats like all the PK time. He’s a useful player despite his cap hit.
And ultimately I find it hard giving him crap for his cap hit.
Who keeps telling you you’re wrong? Facebook?
Zone exits to chin size ratio?
The one good thing about Hextall botching the off season so badly is that he can pursue a goalie, a d-man, and a bottom six forward, and they will instantly be upgrades.
Your hatred for Hextall rivals Mikael's hatred for Klaus in The Vampire Diaries. Considering that beef was 1000 years old, that's saying something.
Sorry, I never saw that movie. Was Klaus also horrible at his job, but the vampires couldn’t see it because their heads were buried in the sand?
He's a balance to the force on this board.
We are all on the scale from loathe entirely to Genius.
Pens X just helps hold down the one side and I for one applaud strong stances. I'd be bored here if everyone was rationally Luke warm about everything.
sooo someone actually thought Gerbil Boy Rossi helped prove their point?/
I'm not hating. It makes me laugh sometimes, which is not easy to do cuz my soul has mostly left the building.
Don't wanna spoil. Should check it out. Watching season 3 now.
It's far better than I expected going in. Pretty good writing, considering the genre.
It's kind of weird that Sullivan's never really tried McGinn in the top six during one of his "mix and match" sessions, at least not more than for a blink of an eye.
Maybe he won't be a fit. But it's hard to know if it's never tried.
Let me guess. You're another 30 something thats soul has been crushed by the weight of this life?
Not gonna blame life or circumstances. Will own up to my own choices that led me to this jaded state.
Grew up in a 1st world country. Had the means. A lot of people do more with less. It is what it is.
Haha thank you. It would be very boring if everyone here treated Hextall like a 5 year old, and didn’t hold him accountable. Basically, this board treats Hextall like Hextall treats Sullivan. We better stay out of his way because that guy is great at what he does. Any team in the league would want him.
Cheer up, bud. At least you don’t twitch at the sight of our GM. Though, lucky for me, Hextall is only seen publicly 3 or 4 times a season.
He’s been tried at LW w Geno a few times…not a lot but it didn’t work..
It’s weird Sullivan hasn’t tried a lot of things, but it’s reached the point where it would be odd if he tried new players or combos. If he ever wanted to freak out this site, he and sleepy should promote an AHL player not due to injuries. Can you imagine if he promoted a guy based on merit and held Carter accountable?
Is it weird? We saw the same thing with Tanev and Blueger too.
Another one…from Gretz
Pressure is growing for Penguins to make a move
The teams around them are making moves and the Penguins can not risk falling behind them.www.pensburgh.com
I know you have your schtick, but it's not a Hextall thing.
The board is genuinely conflicted because it isn't clear that we can upgrade our chances in a material way. Like with the right additions, our chance of winning the Cup goes from 2-->5%? This is a bubble team, through and through. The end of the era is getting weird, just as it did in Detroit in the 2014-2016 timeframe. Throwing assets for a miniscule return now could extend the rebuild another 2 years on the other side. Throwing good money after bad.
Also Sullivan outranks Hextall in the org. If you can't recognize that you are delusional. Or, like, more delusional than you already are.
I like how sleepy never has press conferences or will be seen in public, so they have to use the same pics of him in all of these articles.
Trade for Meier… turn Zucker into 3 C lol
What would the cost be for Foligno and Barbashev? that would be a solid TD. If we can shed some cap I would even go after Chychrun assuming it wont take a 1st to grab Foligno which I can't see and his whooping 15 points on the season.
