๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚. Some bias here? Watch replays without thinking your pens fans. I was at the game and knew right away it was clear. Never left his feet, shoulder/chest was point of contact, the rest of it went to his head but that was Dumblins fault for leaning over and putting him there. Itโ€™s a shame his head whiplashed between Simmonds and the boards but done things are such. It was a clean hit, no question. Stop being biased Wilson!!!

Iโ€™m punting this season, even if they make the playoffs there isnโ€™t a big run in this team, if they move the 1st for a fringe player thatโ€™d be insane

This would be so terrible, but oh so Jim Rutherford. A top four including Jack Johnson & Cody Ceci (assuming when Dumo & Letang are out) makes me want to vomit.

Id have to think Johnson or Pearson are going the other way if they did it. If a first goes the other way in a trade for Ceci I'd lose my marbles.

If we traded for a defenseman, assuming its a bottom pairing defenseman, we'd have 5 rostered defensemen that you really don't want playing any higher than the third pairing when everyone's healthy. That's completely unnecessary and should be avoided.

If the right trade for an actually good defenseman is there, obviously you do it, but beyond that, we should just call up Prow and ride out these injuries. For all we know they're not even long term. Expending assets for yet another poopty bottom pairing guy to plug a short term hole is not only dumb, it also robs us of the opportunity to accurately evaluate Prow.

This..." the rest of it went to his head but that was Dumblins fault for leaning over and putting him there"... is asinine.

Dallas gave up a ton for Zucc and he was injured in his first game and out for the season... So yes, I'd hate to load up.

The Sabres actually. Wonder if that means Risto will be moving for them.
