Outside of Tanger they were the two guys on back end I wanted to keep the most Hahah ffs... Pens team D was great last season, it was scoring touch that was needed revamping the D like this seems a bit F'd up.

This is the weird thing. Matheson and Marino were keepers. We all agreed Dumoulin and Pettersson were the ones to go. F.

So if they didn't sign Rutta they could have just kept Marino?

Letang
Petry
Rutta
Rudy

Yeah it's crazy for a cap strapped team to trade away a 25 year old 2nd pair RD to later in the day have him replaced with a 34 year old one that costs 2 mill more... And also rid of the only other guy who could skate out of their zone like Letang hahah who was also under 30...

Mtl is in a rebuild throw in a pick to get money retained.

Rutta signing seems even stupider now. Would rather have Ruhw or Friedman at a mil.

Nothing like rearranging deck chairs on the titanic before it goes down.

Hexy must be on vacation and Burke is filling in for the weekend.

Ty Smith + 3rd RP for an overpaid Marino is not terrible. We could’ve done worse than this.

Petry is a good 2nd pairing RD but not at the expense of Matheson. Hated to see him gone.

Petry has skill. But he’s expensive and old. Hopefully this ages we’ll.

Why is Marino overpaid all of a sudden?

IDK a year ago Matheson was considered untradable. He did nice last year but I was worried he'd regress and don't think I was the only one. Petry is older but has pretty much always been a stud.

Poehling was a guy I wanted last off-season as a change of scenery player. Former 1st, 22 with some skill, so I like getting him as a throw in. Had 17 points in 57 games playing 12 minutes a night. Maybe never amounts to much, but better than a 4th round pick.

Huge first year year... then bad.. then started to look good again at the very end of this season. So... about 1.75 years of bleh pay on that contract.

He had one goal in 81 games last year!

FFS, this is what Letang/Geno and Rust took discounts for??? I hope all 3 are pissed as hell. We haven't improved one single thing.
