It would be similar to when the Pens acquired Jay McKee.

Were you aware that we were the team who drafted this Jake Muzzin kid on LA?

oh... that bad? lol

I hear ya. All I'm saying is if I'm a Ducks fan I'm not comfortable moving Hiller right now and running with Neuvy/Fasth just to open up a little Cap space.

I mean the team is 16-3-3 or something, they probably shouldn't be changing anything.

If not for vertigo Hiller would still be amongst the best goalies but he did have vertigo and he hasn't fully regained his form. Sadly I don't think he will.

I was aware. Remembered he was picked by the Pens and looked up for his file a couple days ago

I wanted to see what we traded him for....we didn't get anything

While we are at it... Matt Moulson anyone?

Moulson is a guy I didn't remember AT ALL...

Muzzin was never signed. Oh well.

We didn't get anything because he was never signed. Hindsight is 20/20 but he looks like a keeper.

I remember following him a bit while at Cornell.. I guess we only like to pick up the Ivey league kids off waivers. (Adams)

We need better scouts/evaluators....Moulson and Muzzin were lost in the pack.

Anyway, what's Martin St.Louis story?

Edit: I'd sign Gunner for that

No reason to say you're wrong, I just haven't seen it from him at this level. If you were running a team is that a chance you would be willing to take? A season could be derailed mighty fast if it didn't work out.

Neuvy is decent, not great but a credible starter in the league. He's lost his job by being outperformed by Holtby, and he's on the outs a bit here for his comments during the lockout.

Exactly, though Hamrlik also has the misfortune of being really bad at hockey at this point.

Yeah - maybe the Staal injury is long-term and they wanted a veteran on the back end ?

true...and yes his mouth does seem to get him in trouble quite a bit. but the caps don't play very good defense in front of him. i think he could be a star if he has the right group of guys in front of him

I was at the Caps game last night and didn't have an opportunity to see the comments on the Pens blog last night - did it get pretty ugly in here when the Flyers were up 4-1 (i.e. was it "Fire Bylsma" time, etc) ?

A little... but on the Flyers blog about a half hour later, they were calling for Laviolette's head, so it sorta balanced out lol.

From my part YES. I even sugested I'd trade Neal if the return was good

I found that very funny. I went there too just for a laugh.

- Killian

Yes, the Caps defense is pretty spotty - I will say that Holtby has generally outperformed Neuvy playing behind that same defense, though neither has been great. I think a change of scenery would probably be a good thing for Neuvy.

We were trying to treat that like when someone says something uncomfortable when they were really drunk, and their friends just pretend it didn't happen the next day

true.

At least I thought I was on my mental faculties. I proposed a Neal for D.Brown and J.Stoll. The return wasn't bad...

I know that you guys would hate it, but I (and probably every other neutral hockey fan) would love to see a 1 vs 8 or 2 vs 7 matchup between Philly and Pittsburgh. The train wreck potential for another playoff series between these two is off the charts.
