I mean, yes? Did you not thing he offered that?
No one’s championing it…except maybe Sullivan lol…some of us are just saying he’s fine for your 6th or 7th D man who’s getting minimal time because your top two RDs are very dynamic and the opposite of him..I do think he’s a better defender than Friedman and that’s why he plays, plus he doesn’t take as many penalties…I’d love it if one of the young guys supplant him but they’re not going to get a chance under Sullivan unless he’s injured or his play really tails off…I’m fine if they pick up someone else who plays more inspired hockey than him but it’s fine if they don’t, as long as his play doesn’t drop off like it did last season…he actively helps the team right now by shot blocking and defending, which is something you can’t say about Carter lolI only mention it because Ruhwedel plays a kind of hockey I despise and I think less of people for championing it.
What Sullivan does or doesn’t do is his own problem.
I feel like Rutta was close enough to a RHD Cole and it didn’t work very well.
Nah Cole was way better aside from taking penaltiesI feel like Rutta was close enough to a RHD Cole and it didn’t work very well.
That doesn't instill me with a lot of hope that this is going to work out. That's not to say I had high expectations to begin with, but maybe this helps Wilkes-Barre more than Pittsburgh.

Yeah, I'm guessing he was included to keep rosters balanced so that Vancouver didn't hit the max of 50 contracts or something.No surprise. I don’t really know why he was ever given an ELC? His numbers were always very mediocre. Hopefully he can turn it around in Czechia. I don’t think he was even good enough to play for Wheeling, IMO.
This includes Shaw BoomhowerYeah, I'm guessing he was included to keep rosters balanced so that Vancouver didn't hit the max of 50 contracts or something.
Pens have other players they want on the ice in Wheeling.

48 contracts. 2 open.Parting ways with Plasek should be positive, right? Think we are pretty close the contract limit. And this trade now opens up a slot.
