Trade Galchenyuk and a future pick (if needed) for a stud D-man

I don’t think Galchenyuk is getting you a stud dman even with a good pick or prospect.

I’m Yohes mailbag he touches on how he would sit Bjugstad and I have to say I’m with him. He isn’t bad overall but I just don’t think he fits as well as the rest and his play has been pretty meh.

The Pens have a lot of options and when you can consider sitting good players you’re definitely in a position of strength.

Did you just concede that ZAR is a good player?!

Nope. I said when you can consider sitting a good player like Bjugstad, you’re in a position of strength.

I can’t stand ZAR because he’s a frustrating player. When you see that 80% of the time he skates in mud and shoots like a marshmallow, but when slotted next to better players he decides to skate and shoot harder? I don’t want him blocking players who are going to bring it regardless of where they play in the lineup.

I'd also have sat Blueger but put Bjugstad in that spot and kept the Kahun-McCann-Rust line together.

I can see where that might mean Bjugstad is eventually out, but I don't want to trade any of the forwards until we figure out the second line. If Galchenyuk and Malkin play well together, they probably don't need to dump anyone. If they don't, Galchenyuk might be the guy you look to move out and make a play for a true top 6 wing.

There are some posters in here (mainly 1) that say that thats an opinion which makes it "void"

He definitely isn't getting you a stud D man. Also, what is a stud D man and who is he talking about?

Definitely looking forward to tomorrow’s game as Sid seems to shine against Western Canada. Welcome back Geno!

Apparently Raanta is quietly being shopped. The Coyotes picked up Eric Comrie and feel very strongly about him. One of the rumored destinations is Columbus depending on how their recent hot goaltending goes

I just met Terrel Suggs and he. is. MASSIVE 😱 He’s got quite the handshake too 😂

Are we not doing 'phrasing' any more?

Given that injuries will hit again, I’m definitely happy that we’re 14 deep at NHL forwards this season. That being said, I definitely don’t want to be sitting a guy like Kahun for an extended period of time.

Again, good problems to have, but I agree with you. I was standoffish to it before, but I think McCann should play 4C and sit Blueger.

A) Best Forward not named Guentzel, Malkin, Crosby
B) Best Prospect
C) 1st round pick
D) JJ

Bring in a top Dman that can drive play without Letang.

Make a real proposal. What forward? What Prospect? and who do you want or think we can bring in.

I don't want him sitting at all TBH. I think he is better than ZAR and should play over him, but the coaches obviously feel different.

With 2.6 mill in space though GMJR has to be feeling the trade itch.
