Please say no to Kesler, not because I don't think he is a good player...He is, but because of what it will cost to get him. Find a winger for Crosby, upgrade the 3rd line with those assets. Kesler wont make them a cup winning team, but the other stuff makes their chances much better. If they turned down Sutter and Poul, then the price is waaay too steep.

Did anybody ever confirm that the Pens offered Sutter and Pouliot? I thought the offer was Sutter/Despres. With all the uncertainty around Letang I'd sure hate to see them part with Pouliot.

LGP! Would rather this game be indoors.....

The reports being thrown out, seem to say that was the offer they turned down. If that is the case, you say no thanks and move on. Like I said, get a winger for Sid..couple 3rd line grinders and call it a day. If you can get one of the goalies on the cheap, do it.

I'm writing from Brazil in a different time zone that's why I'm asking how much time is left.

So half an hour to start the game!

Any HD feeds please post here! There's that guy on Twitter that always gives a good HD Feed. Forgot his Twitter..

I'm with you dude. If I'm looking at this teams most pressing problems, the thought of 3rd line center is not what I'm thinking. I just think if they're putting a bunch of assets out there, I want a long term YOUNG RW for Sid. Nothing less.

I think this might be the first time I would seriously question Shero's thought process.

It doesn't matter which combo was offered. They turned it down because of Sutter. They want Bennett. Once they turn down Sutter, any chance of Kesler coming here was gone. Sutter has to be apart of any deal involving Kesler.

Could not agree more, should be top priority for sure....Move duper down to the 3rd line next year. I can live with a Sutter and Duper on the 3rd line.

I don't know, I think most people at the time believed adding Iggy was a good thing. I'm not going to go off on one of my anti-Bylsma rants, but I really believe he wasn't used right. He's played very well with the B's. He's second in scoring for the B's. 44pts, 17g, +21. Only getting 1.8. Think the Pens would like to have him this year at 1.8mil? Second thought, Dan might have him playing D.

I will say, I didn't like the Morrow trade. I watched a lot of Dallas last year and I didn't think he had much left.

Loungo not starting for the Nucks tonight a big kick in the nuts...he made it very known that he was looking forward to playing in this game. No wonder people want out of Van...

Rossi just says the Pens have identified the guy they want and it's Kesler. F**k!

Lol

I Hope we don't trade him. Love his game. Big guy with skill and good skating.

Dumoulin can go instead.

Would you be fine with a Sutter/Despres for Kesler trade?

Not really, because of the injuries on D, and Kesler doesn't help the F depth or a RW for Sid. I would rather they trade for Marty than Kesler
