Ha... Ha... Got me. I haven't been paying much attention. I turned on the radio today to hear Madden briefly mention that his sources say the Pens are going to pursue new contracts for both Geno and Letang. He's an obnoxious pig, but he does have real Penguins sources.

Maddens great. Only source of hockey news coming out of the burgh worth paying attention too. If he offends you you have too many feelings.

Wasnt this the guy that wanted to trade Malkin for Oshie ?

EDIT: Oshie and Backes....look at the headline title of this guy's story hahahah...this was the 2015 offseason. Good thing GMJR didnt take his advice....a week before acquiring Phil the Thrill...

Not really a big claim by Madden... Penguins announced that weeks ago

Yup. Dude's a clown with trash opinions. Sure, he might have decent sources, so that might make listening to him somewhat bearable.... actually, nah. Dude's annoying as (frank).

Yeah I don't feel like putting the effort into parsing through everything he says and trying to figure out when he's sincerely reporting something and when he's doing his WWE but hockey shtick. Glad people enjoy him, he's not for me. I'll just wait until some other reliable source says something about a situation.

I listened to his interview with Burke and it was basically him re-asking all the questions that Burke and Hextall already answered in their closing season presser.

It wasn't a bad interview by any means, but it wasn't anything new, except maybe the tidbit about Sully telling him the Reaves like was so bad he couldn't play them.

But he's pretty worthless if he's not interviewing because of his pompous/arrogant character with no real opinions.

"The Pens have to be better. They just have to be better. Geno and Letang have to be better. All you Geno fanboys will fight me on this. But he's got to be better."

Well no (frank)ing poop. Tell us how.

I can't think of anything from his "sources" that have been in any sense of reality. He's one of these radio morons who saw what Howard Stern was doing, and thought "Hey, I'll be outrageous, too."

MIN needs centers. What do you guys think of a deal centered around McCann and Greenway?

I'd rather do a Blueger deal. McCann can play up and down the lineup. Not saying blueger can't. Just saying McCann has and it works.

Why would they want a winger if they need centers?

Because McCann also plays center which he shows again this year to be capable.

I'd keep Gaudreau without a doubt. He showed he's a perfect fit for us. I'm worried about losing Blueger. Hopefully Pettersson will be the one gone to Seattle.

I don't like the idea of losing Pettersson to Seattle. I think Pettersson could actually garner a decent return. Ideally Zucker or Matheson (highly unlikely) get picked up.

Okay well why would they want an almost capable 3c?

Do you think Pettersson would bring a better return than Zucker in a trade? Seattle can have him as well lol
IMO Matheson is a better player than Pettersson even though his contract is worse.

He's not "almost" capable. He's absolutely capable.

I don't hate him just think he's D-man #6 on our current roster. PO Joseph can take his spot easily.

Definitely not at center and in terms of a winger he’s infinitely better than Greenway.

Zucker and Matheson are hard to move because of their contracts, but Zucker would be easier than Matheson. That said, Pettersson shouldn't be hard to move at all.
