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!

Wayne Gretzky once scored 92 goals in a season. Pens should sign him.

I heard that his agent passed on it without even telling E-Rod but I'm not sure what's going on there.

Hard to believe that. If I had to guess the guy said he could get more and obviously couldn't. Not informing a client on a contract offer would be a slam dunk lawsuit.

Bad advice vs breach of fiduciary duty.

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!

It's funny that you're not even smart enough to realize it's Lemieux, Jagr, Crosby, Malkin and Francis.

Dude the 9 goals in 40 games was when he was 25 years old lol. Again, Sid was on pace for 133 points in 2010 so he can do that this year, right?!

I guarantee you were one of the ones wetting their pants when they acquired Rakell last year. It’s been 4 years since he scored over 20 goals. By your logic, what makes him a lock for the top 6?

Dude I know, I had to throw away that pair of pants they were so crusty. The logic is is that I watch games and he's actually good. You are the one who started the whole "you guys are throwing out stats and don't watch games" when in actuality you yourself started It by throwing out stats that guys had in college. The problem is you think that Archi-Blue-Cagg is going to be the second coming of Martin-Cizikas-Clutterbuck and it's (frank)ing not even close.
Edit: Rakell had 20 goals last season split between the Ducks and Pens lol. I had to go look to be sure you were right.

Its actually been 4 and 5 seasons since he scored 34 and 33 respectively. Its pretty crazy you would low ball that to its been 4 years since he scored 20, especially when he had 20 last season.

I also don't understand bringing Rakell, who was one of the better more desired UFA wingers this offseason, into an argument about Archie and Cagg being good and what the Pens really need.

None of this is to say I don't hope you're right because I do hope you're right. If they ended up on 4th line and it became a powerhouse 4th line, then fvck yeah giddy up!...just don't see it though...

I’ve given his NHL stats several times already. Biden can read a teleprompter better than you can read!

Maybe you should stop going by stats and actually watch the games, I feel like that's lacking from your analysis.

You and everyone else were the ones using “stats’ to label Archibald and Caligula scrubs without seeing them play. I watch enough other games and both were noticeable when I did. I didn’t say they were going to light the world on fire but rather they could contribute. Colorado went out and got Cogliano snd Helm and they really helped to solidify their 4th line. They aren’t big scorers either but they helped them win!

You proved how dumb you were when you said Tampa Bay didn’t change the way they play! Take a poll and see how many people agree with you! 0!

His NHL stats are from when he was 25. Not his past 3 seasons. You're just putting way to much into thinking they will be game changers for us in the bottom 6. I mean I hope it does, I'm not rooting against it by no means I want the team to have success. So I hope you're right but the chances are like throwing a chip on number 15 on a roulette table.
