No thanks. Kuni should never have left, but at this stage I'm not moving that player for kuni. I like that kid and he could be a gem found from no where.

I love hearing MM is done. I was hoping that the injury would essentially end his career in Pittsburgh and it looks like it. Too bad we couldn't possibly trade MM for MAF eh? Funny how that works...

I also like the idea of Brass gone too...and Rust is useless this year, so he can go too.

I would not touch our D until or if we can get an upgrade down there first.

That leaves all these piece to fix all the issues that Sullivan has created. He wanted his guy Murray over fluery...he pushed out or didn't play pieces like Cole Reaves and Sprong. Seems to me that fixing the lineup is great, but our coach and gm are not fully on the same page. But, only one of them was given an extension..so....where is coach Q?

Rikkola is terrible. And isn’t a kid.

Y'know who'd look really good in a Pens jersey?

Kapanen.

I'm not saying you lost the Kessel trade, it was a good trade. But i bet you wish you still had Kappy. You should at least.
- Arctic_AARDVARK

Not at all. Kessel was the main reason for back to back cups and was arguably the MVP. If Kapanen stayed and we never got kessel, those cups possibly don’t happen. Plus, kessel has way more trade value than Kapanen right now if they decide to trade him

Im not talking about what happened because of the trade, im saying he's turning out to be a very good player and he would look good on your team.

Good points all around.

He is not terrible at all. I remember Letang was terrible in his first year playing pro NHL defense...a lot.of solid defensemen struggle a bit early on. He is new to the NHL and definitely not old. I see 58 letting us down more often than 50...maybe u have an old tv and are confusing the numbers on the sweater??

I’m glad everyone ignored my loony post lol

No not really. With Kappi in the lineup and no Kessel, we do not win either of the last two cups. Kessel was a playoff monster during those cup runs. But thanks for playing.

You can't have every good player on your team.

You know who would good as a Leaf... Kessel would with you guys finally having non poop centers.

So would McDavid.

Now things are getting interesting. Gotta love goalie drama!

you guys really are missing the point..

but i see no point in discussing something with you that you do not understand.

Its not a point, its just bad. We won 2 cups in 3 years after the trade. Even without winning another, that is a win for an organization.

What is your point, without the trade, we 'maybe' win one of the cups... but keep the assets?

Yeah it would have been great to trade Hornqvist and also kept Neal.

Nope.. were happy with a 22yr fastest player in the east who costs pennies to the dollar and has shown to be dangerous offensivly..

He's better than the garbage you play with crosby.. You win cups because of Sid and Geno, not Kessel, but he played well..

Do we wish, in hindsight, we traded you Pouliot instead of Kapanen? Yes.

Otherwise the Kessel trade was a resounding win for the Penguins and otherwise not sure of your point.

all i was saying is that Kapanen is turning out to be better than most thought. With the lack of skilled wingers playing with Sid he would fit nicely there. Nothing i said had anything to do with Kessel, and i even said that you didn't lose the trade. Just simply that Kappys value is going up.

That's dumb, Guentzal is hardly garbage. Plus, we probably don't win those cups without Kessel. Check that... We DO NOT win those cups without him. Certainly wouldn't have won them with Kappy.....guaranteed.
