Stempniak to Car 2 years, 2.5M per

Continues to be insane value. I think that matches the highest cap hit he's ever carried

Send kuni packing sign Schultz and lw UFA
- nh4442


So you're going to move Kunitz and re-sign Shultz, I get that and could see it but let's assume they get Shultz for 2M, who is the UFA LW you're signing for 1.5M-1.85M that's going to replace what Kunitz brought to the team?

I try not to be negative on here but did Kuni (frank) your mother or shoot your dog at some point in his career? You mention the same damn thing at least eight times in the comments of every new article. You offer no ideas on who to replace him with that is feasible from a cap standpoint or they would be a downgrade at LW, and the same goes for just about every ufa you bring up as well.

Might be done for the day...JR doing an interview.

I'm fine with that. We did all we had to do if we're not planning on trading Flower.

What do you think the going rate is for Hudler? Any chance he could be had for ~$2M? Would be a good depth signing that can play either wing & float up & down the lineup. Do that & call it a day GMJR.
- BestEpisodeEver


That's what I had in mind ~$2M on a one year deal..sell him on inflated numbers in pittsburgh to get one last payday.

Prob could get another million elsewhere though

Buffalo with a genius move trading its problem child to NY Islanders for Okposo. So, E. Kane has been traded twice in the last 1.5 years.

Buffalo is a lot better.

Hutton and Johnson sign nice cheap deals as backups. Too bad for us.

Pens say JR thinks that the door has not closed on Cullen and Schultz coming back next year. Whatever that means.

So nothing on Justin Shultz at all huh? Kris Russel too although I would take Shultz any day over Russel. Maybe the old man can swing a trade for Kuni and then sign both. He sure gave a lot of dmen 2 way contracts today.
- Dcoms


Kinda surprised that you're so keen on the Pens signing guys like Shultz and Russel when the result of either of those signings would be Pouliot not getting a chance to prove he's NHL. You've been Pouliot's biggest supporter but now you're advocating moves that would cost Pouliot his spot.

They don't need to sign anyone. The way Guentzle is impressing maybe after lighting the AHL up for 20-30 games he gets called up and never goes back. Sprong will be back by the playoffs although I am not expecting anything from him next year. Dom Simon could take the next step. If that doesn't work then find a bottom 6 LW at the TDL.

I thought I heard up here that Okposo was a sign and trade deal with Buffalo with Kane moving on. My bad.
