I'm still waiting to see Reaves get a few shifts with Sid. Remember how they expected Reaves to come in and score, not be fighter? |

LOL
I love how on the board it changes that word to genitalia, but when you quote it you see the actual word... |

Hornqvist is to passing as Hagelin is to shooting.
If someone combined their genes together to make a hockey player, it would either be the best or worst hockey player of all time. |

I really can't figure out why BUF is so bad and I'm not trying to antagonize their errant fan over here.
I mean on paper, even their defense is pretty darn OK. |

Letang clanks a shot off a leg and the high forward and Dumo caught flat footed. Talking about bad team D. It never ends with this team.
What's Letang....like a minus 90 at this point? |

Talking about bad team D. - madmike71
This has been the big issue. When Sullivan came in this team was about puck-support and attack. Then just like that... POOF .... it's gone.
Part of it has to do with a change in the type of personnel they've employed and part is just the team not getting on the same page. |

It’s starting to look like this roster is just plain stale. On the spectrum, I think I’ve always been on the end advocating for prospects to be brought along slowly as apposed to the “OMFG THEYRE LIGHTING UP THE AHL THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN BROUGHT UP YESTERDAY!!!” crowd, but it’s high time to give Sprong a look to get some fresh blood. Then I’d consider making a trade like the Neal-Hornqvist or Perron-Hagelin trade of exchanging like forwards. We have good wings, but I think swapping out guys and getting new blood in might be for the best. Not Kessel, though, before you chuckle(frank)s start with that bs again.

I’d also consider swapping out Dumo for a new look top 4. He’s nothing special anymore with his new cap hit. |

Ehhh, can't get on board with that. My guess though and not just because he's benched today, I think Cole could be on his way out.
Hunwick and Cole are very similar dmen. I'm not trying to start a who's better, I'm just saying style-wise they are similar and with Hunwick signed through next season I wouldn't be surprised to see Cole moved. |

Focused on success of AHL team and not the big club. 80 pts from a possible playoff position, or hit the cellar for a high pick.
Wicked tough loss to the brooooons. |

I mean trading Cole is extremely different than trading Dumoulin. Third pairing is probably the least important facet of a hockey team where as the top 4 is one of the most important. I think changing the look of the bottom pairing is pretty inconsequential compared to changing the look of our top 9 forwards and top 4 d, although your analysis isn’t wrong. |

I just hope to God he doesn't trade their 1st round pick for someone who maybe been gone in a year or two. Gotta start getting some young 18 years old in the system. |

I just can't blame any of our Dman at this point other than Letang......who has been atrocious. ATROCIOUS. If I were to trade a guy with value it would be Maatta. If he ever loses a step, he'll be Scuderi bad. I think Dumo will be a good Penguin for years to come. Especially with his size and reach. IMO he's being brought down by Letangs brutal play.
I agree with your assessment of the stale roster. It's a little stale and much slower. Bottom half of the team is slow and unskilled. |
