Relitigating E-Rod and Dom Simon is my personal Stanley Cup. Can we get Sheary in here to?

poop. Would have loved to get Savard for the contract he got from Montreal. 4 year at $3.5M AAV is not cheap but pretty fair and he is just the type of guy we needed.

Wouldn't you rather have those two at their very minimum salary then the huge over payment on Wennberg?

I think this is the death rattle. It really seems like they're starting to pack it up and plug up the best they can.

Is Jankowski still available?

We need a 4C as long as Geno is out

At this point we need Hallander, Poulin, Legare and Zoharna to make the team 🤣

If there is something positive to take away from the moves so far it is that it increases the chances that we get Saad. We now have a couple super cheap depth guys that the coach (for whatever reason) trusts to play in the lineup. That should give Hextall a bit more confidence in spending money on a bigger fish.

I have no issue with these signing, I'm just here for reactions.

This is not a "sky is falling" comment, but if the plan right now is to not be aggressive and just limp in, then I really don't see the point of re-signing Malkin and Letang. Why not just pack it up and start the rebuild?

I'd love to see Geno and Letang retire as Penguins, but ice a team that will barely compete for a playoff spot makes little sense to me.

This does make sense

Get some NHL bodies into the stable and then go fishing for a big name the will eat up a lot of the remaining cap

If the AHL/ECL guys don't work out you can fall back on some that are somewhat familiar and proven
