I would say Archi would be perfect for the 13th forward. And I wouldn't have Cagg at 14. I'd have other players to be called up over him. No one cares what he did at ND or 5 years ago haha

Wait until Archibald and Caggiula are running around hitting people and scoring goals. I don’t want to see any posts about what great signings they were and they deserve more ice time! I don’t like to play the “I told you so” game but in this case I will. I can see Archibald and Caggiula rotating on the 4th line. Archibald will also help the ok. If Caggiula was good enough to play with Toews and Archibald with Mcdavid, they can’t just be scrubs? If I’m wrong then you can let me have it after the season. We shall see!

The Penguins should sign Gordie Howe. A bunch of years ago, he was really good. Plus he liked to hit people too.

In 2010 Crosby was on pace for 130 points before injury. I think he can do that this year.

A real man would score goals while in the hospital

Archibald is not good enough to play with Mcdavid, it's one reason why they don't have a cup, and Chicago is a (frank)ing dumpster fire after their big runs, they (frank)ed up so bad. So if you're going by either of those two teams and the way they run things then we'll I have nothing to say lol

Archibald and Caggiula are just the type of players you want on the 4th line, yet you state they have nothing else to contribute if they are not scoring. This just goes to show your ignorance! The Pens biggest problem is their lack of physicality but go on thinking they can win a Cup again with just a skating team. Tampa Bay changed their team to win in the playoffs, why can’t we?

Tampa bay aren't an overly physical team...and the Pens problems last playoffs were very bad untimely injury luck and a 3rd string goalie. You think they would of advanced past the Rangers with Archie and Cagg on the 4th line?

I'd rather see Radim Zohorna than the garbage on the 4th line or even instead of Kapanen for that matter

It literally took the Rangers 7 games to beat us playing Desmith for 1 game, Domingue for basically 6 games (because of that triple overtime) and an injured Jarry in game 7 while also losing Rakell in game 1 and it all changed when Sid went out injured.

I guess you have to put 66,87 and 10 in your name to compensate for your lack of hockey knowledge. It’s really sacrilegious!

Frank Seravalli on Sportsnet 960 said that Rodrigues was offered a 3-year, $10.5M contract at the beginning of free agency that he passed on, which led to changing his agent.

That's a lot of dough left on the table if true...

Ouch sounds like they misread the market. Tough for midtier guys to cash in when there's no money left

LOL what the (frank) did Tampa change to win the playoffs? They won because of guys like Point, Kucherov, Stamkos, Hedman, and Vasi. GTFO out of here hahahahaha.

First-round draft pick Owen Pickering has an upper-body injury that's being evaluated, so he wasn't on the ice today. "We thought it was important for him to come here anyways and be a part of this," WBS head coach J.D. Forrest said.

Why the hate for Archibald and Caggiula? I think they will end up solidifying our bottom 6. Both have good speed and are physical. Caggiula could even see time in the top 6 as he did in Chicago. He scored 25 goals his senior year at North Dakota so he isn’t just some scrub. I await your final report card on them at the end of the year!

Wow, 25 goals in college, screw Jake, put him on Sid's line. Mad Max had 98 points in 51 games his final year of junior, he should have been our #1 Center lol

They had those guys the previous 5 years(2 1st seeds and 3 2nd) and never won one. They led the league in points and goals scored and got bounced by Columbus in the 1st round in ‘18-‘19. Only after they changed the way they played and acquired guys like Maroon,Goodrow,Coleman,Bogosian,Cernak and Rutta did they finally win. You really do have to start watching more hockey!

Did you also read that I said he had 13g in 67 g,12g in 55g and 9g in 40g in the NHL! In an 82g season that would be 15,18,18 for the year. If Zucker once again gets hurt this year, you very well may see him playing alongside Malkin!
