Will Sid play at all in the preseason? Seems like in the past he would’ve been out there already. Plus I heard he isn’t practicing every day. Just part of getting old?

Marino still up ... but so is Trotman. The "extra" forward is Adam Johsnon, I assume due to his injury.

In fact, all three are apparently injured.

Marino is the only one of the threee who sill has a stall however.

Dad-to-day for him, and Trotman is supposed to be longer term, I believe.

Hate to say it, but the Trotman injury kinda pleases me. Between Marino, PO Joseph, Almari, Czuczman, Warsofsky, potentially Riikola or Rude Beetle, and WBS' own signings like Abt, Erkamps, and Siebenaler, there's enough guys down there without that stiff.

In general, it seems like there is a huge glut of players in WBS this year. Jarry, D'Orio, and Larmi are all on NHL deals to go along with **** Tokarski. The forward situation looks even more crowded than defense. Johnson, Angello, Drozg, Almeida, Bjorkqvist, Olund, Lafferty, Bellerive, Miletic, Lucchini, and Palve making up the list of prospects to go along with veterans like Blandisi, Cramarossa, DiPauli, Agozzino, and Haggerty, plus whoever the hell WBS has signed like Ben Sexton. That list is closing in on 20 forwards.

From an Atheltic article today (Yohe):

• The Pens are a few hundred thousand dollars over the cap and may have to make a trade to become cap compliant
• JR tried to trade Jarry over the summer, but no one was interested
• Jarry remains available
• Jack Johnson is available
• Rust and Bjugstad are available for the right price
• An important note from the article is that JR says the goalie market is heating up After a very slow off-season due to all the UFA goalies available. That being said, if they can't find a deal for Jarry, they will either keep all three goalies on the roster or send one down and hope they clear

Damn it, Jarry. Get your **** together

Tanev with a nice tip on Jultzy's shot...

We might get a game off from the fan lament...

Oh **** off. Seriously.

I was literally just about to say he looks like he fits much better on Crosby's line than Malkin

If Moritz Seider gets a penalty, do they call it "Two Minutes with Morrie"?

Please tell me that Kuffner shot hit something...

Postby **NTP66** » Wed Sep 25, 2019 7:34 pm

Dreger says that we’re trading a defenseman, and that the likely candidate is Johnson. Will probably trade another if they can’t move his contract.

The only reason I came into the thread was to say he looked like he fit better with Crosby and Guentzel's north-south style.

As I said before, it looked like he didn't fit with Malkin's east-west game last week and it looked incredibly obvious.

Looking forward to Jultz having a monster year.
