mikey's Thread of Penguin Randomness

At least we got some exciting hockey the last few weeks. Hopefully they can build on the positives and learn from their mistakes. It definitely has been fun. But the pens haven’t learned from their mistakes ever, even when they were winning. This, for me, is what makes this year feel much worse tha...

Non-Penguins NHL Games 2023-24

I hope the Rags light up the Craps like a Broadway show

A show that closes almost as soon as it opens. The Rangers are going to smoke them.

mikey's Thread of Penguin Randomness

Welp. Todd better be gone, tomorrow. There’s a lot to be angry about, but this is number one for me. The PP cast darkness on the whole season, start to finish, like the f’n Hindenburg. You don’t always need to worry about blowing 3rd period leads when you have insurance goals. You’ve put the game a...

Felt like the boys kept winning as long as I stayed away, so I got ultrastitious.

Sigh.

DD's Thread of Trade Deadlining Because mikey is a whiner

Random thought…. … … You screwed around on the PP all season and played so loose and casual like nothing was on the line. You blew countless leads. You prefer pond hockey over playoff style hockey. … … I don’t want to see some sad, downtrodden, depressed act from this team over the next month. I wa...

DD's Thread of Trade Deadlining Because mikey is a whiner

This trade 100% had to happen. This team is in no position to let a valuable asset walk in free agency for nothing in return. As far as him coming back, if they couldn't agree on a price for an extension there's zero chance he comes back. Last thing this team needs is another long, expensive contra...

I know it won’t take much, but I just hope they’re better than Beech, Sivek and Lupaschuk. :lol:

Actually my benchmark. If, as a fan, I could witness that trade and live to tell about it, I can survive any trade (except one involving Sid).

Theyre not even reading the scouting report. They're just mad they didn't get their "top ranked prospects" who they've never seen play and whose names they learned 48 hours ago.. I’m just now reading the same prospect reports most everyone else is, because I’ve never heard of any of the new kids. B...

I don't need the details to know I don't like Jake being traded, thank you.

I don’t want him to go, either. But I’ve made peace with it.

I’m waiting before judgment.

I just hope that if Jake’s headed to a division rival, then it had better be worth it.

Bunting scored 23 playing with Matthews so it's not like he can't keep up with talent. That said, he's almost definitely not the only part of the deal so let's chill out and wait for the details lol Or we can start now on the road from Underwhelmedtown to Pretty Pissed-Offville and beat any traffic...

If it’s bunting a 1st and some middling prospect that will be awful.

It would a slap in the Core’s faces, especially Sid’s.

Come on. This is starting to feel like a trade just to trade, and I trusted Dubas not to do just that.

But Guentzel is the biggest trade deadline chip since... Hossa? Dubas should 100% be asking for that

Agreed, which is why it won’t surprise me if Jake doesn’t get traded after all.

I'm still in shock over the Hossa trade. @columbia blew his board cover and emailed me it was such a huge trade.

Iginla was bananas though.

:lol: Hossa was totally a shock. Ah, the “Fiesta Mexicana” days…what a time.

Remember that middle of the night Iginla trade? That was so cool. Didn't end well, though. That night was actually a total blast on HF. It was insane. The Pens were prematurely handed the Cup about 1,000x, and the other Metro teams’ fans tears could’ve filled the Dead Sea. IIRC, it started about an...
