So what are the odds that we see him this season?

Signed his ELC earlier this year, there's a possibility we see him. Elite prospects has him as a L/RW so unless injuries occur I'd expect him to play most if not all in WBS. Coming off a shoulder surgery a healthy year in WBS would probably be best.

"Geno, early on, I wanted to kill him. I didn’t really get along with Geno early. My personality, I don’t really know why.”

Reading that article... all of the players, especially the stars, liked Kessel. Sullivan is the one people can't get along with. Thanks Tocchet for putting a light on that.

The takeaway for me is that Kessel and Sullivan had a rift going. I didn't really get that Sullivan has trouble getting along with the other players, though. In fact, it's noted that Malkin hold Sullivan in "high regard."

Malkin sure seems like a dick, though. Not that we didn't know that already.

That was my takeaway from the article. Kessel being weird was known. Sullivan being an ass was known. Kessel and Sullivan not liking each other was known. I don't know that evidence of Geno being a dick was ever really public before.

More of a hot head than a dick, IMO.

WBS Pens sign Dustin Tokarski, which by simple math would mean the end is coming for either DeSmith or Jarry.

http://www.wbspenguins.com/2019/07/08/p ... -tokarski/

Only things I know about him is he has some pretty good AHL numbers over the last three seasons (54-22-5) and that Pierre lost his **** mind calling one of his saves back in 2008 or 09.

WBS now has Jarry, Tokarski, D'Orio, and Larmi under contract.

After DeSmith's extension last season I expected Jarry to be shipped elsewhere this offseason, but Tokarski is on an AHL deal so trading Jarry would likely make Emil Larmi the third goalie, which I'm not sure is something you want given Murray's injury history.

Tokarski plays the position like a jellyfish with polio

Yes he does. Brutal goalie.

DeSmith is there for the expansion draft.

Jarry could feasibly be sneaked down with a well-timed waiver placement...

He’s a AAAA goalie. He really dominates the A and looks bored doing it. He gets his ass torched in the National

So he's the Dustin Jeffrey of goaltending.

I was speaking about Tokarski

The jury is still out on Jarry. The tools are there. Is the compete level?

Strikeouts are boring. Besides that, they're fascist. Throw some ground balls, it's more democratic.
