You bet but it's a good thing to look @ them as you can see the tendencies from each player.

Nothing but good luck to James Neal. He was a good Penguin for most part and seems to be feeling at home now in Nashville.

Go Pens! 4-2!

1. Letang wont win it no matter what for the jersey and the teammates he wears, and plays with.
2. Fancy Stats are stupid and unneeded to anyone who knows and understands hockey. I don't use them and I know more about hockey than anyone I know.

What's wrong with Grinder47?

Neato!

He also wanted Engelland over Despres....I usually skip over anything he posts...its not worth it

Speaking of Engo. He had a good scrap with Luke Gazdic last night. But I'd still rather have Despres.

lol no brainer here

I think Bortuzzo is a better player than him too but considering how poopty he has been I'd rather have Engelland to pound some heads if the cap hits were the same.

Many do.

Neal playing better than I thought he would... but Horny is better in all fronts in my mind, even the goals since hes had less games.

Someone said it. He got such a bad reputation by the end of his tenure here...but he was one of the most talented and entertaining players on the team for a few years. I really liked him as a player and it was unfortunate that he started the cheapshot/dirty hits. Love Hornqvist, but if I could I'd want them both

Just said this on the other blog...

Bortuzzo for Dwight King? Maybe we add something small..

Oh and when we were talking about Sean Bergenheim before...

look at his hero chart...

I think he'd be an awesome addition here

Yeah. He might be handy for guys like Rinaldo, but not at his salary.

Bergenheim for Spaling would be good for our 3rd line. Winnik for our 4th line.

Ideally I'd want Lowry, M.Martin or Reaves but D.King would be good enough.

I miss Rupp on our 4th. He was good for us and could hit and fight very well.

I'm with you there....but those guys are probably close to untouchable because theyre all with contenders. And yes, I know King is with the Kings, but just thinking they might need some help with Voynov out and King is more of a luxury for them. I could be way off though...they may not be intrigued by that deal at all.

I like Bortuzzo's game and price for a bottom pairing guy but think he's easily replaceable.

That would do wonders for our bottom 6.

In dream land we do one of those deals. Then Sutter, Harrington, 2nd for Hanzal. That would be a whole new world of skill and grit throughout the lineup...

Perron-Sid-Hornqvist
Kunitz-Malkin-Bennett
Bergenheim-Hanzal-Comeau
King-Lapierre-Downie

Thats just too good.

I wanted engo resigned as a 4th line winger... for less than a million per year... guess that was a pipe dream huh?

the way bortz has been playing you'd have to waive him to get rid of him

Right now I'd probably trade Bortuzzo for Winnik straight up tbh

Or we could offer Bortuzzo or Spaling for Bergenheim.

lol and he probably would be starting for us in place of.....Arcobello since Adams is a staple on the team

Fixed that for you. Comeau has been too good with Malkin to just take him off that line. Bennett has good chemistry with Sutter inspite of poopty play from both lately.

:-)

Either way...that'd be the best forward group we've iced in many years.
