Great get for Winnipeg considering the leverage they didn’t have
Not a bad trade for the jets I feel a bit better for them now that they got a prospect back in return
As a Pens fan, I loved Yager and always will be a fan of his, but I'm excited to see what Rutger brings to our team! I think he could have success as soon as this year with us!
Return is great for the jets considering the fact they had no choice to trade Mcgroarty
pretty decent return for Winnipeg!
Sad to see Yager go as a Pens fan but McGroarty is closer to the NHL, could even potentially be the new winger with Sid. If Dubas wants to get younger but stay competitive with the big 3 this is the perfect type of move for us. Overall W but Winnipeg definitely getting a really good piece so wishing Yager nothing but the best. Obviously neither had played in the NHL yet so kind of too early to say anything but I think this is a rare win-win for both sides.
Figured Winnipeg wouldn't get more than a third, maybe a second-round pick considering they had no leverage so nice job by management here.
good lord looking back on that draft day video when crosby called Yager. that’s so sad
How with less leverage do the Jets pull off another great trade. They need a prospect center like Yager and hes been developing really well great work by Chevy again
As a Pens fan it would have been nice to keep Yager and get mcGroarty, but you have to give in order to get. I hope that Rutger is able to have an immediate impact for the Penguins and help accelerate the quiet rebuild.
As a jets fan, I’m not mad at all about this return, yager is one year younger and they were both drafted 14th. Al though I think rutger is better in this moment, yager has so much potential and I’m not mad AT ALL with this knowing rutger was gonna leave. And Yager is canadien
Solid hockey trade for both sides. As a Pens fan, Yager was the first glimmer of hope we’ve had in YEARS as far as a seriously talented prospects goes. Tit for tat trade but I think McGroarty has a quicker impact on the NHL lineup in Pittsburgh. Helps speed up the pace of this gnarly rebuild coming.
And Yagers a Manitoba kid
Big fan of Yager, Jets did well in this deal considering situation.
Brayden yager always sims to become a 90 pt selke winning forward in the nhl games. Rutger aint even in the game. Therefore winnipeg wins
I don't think the Pens are heading to a "re-tool" lol, unless some miracle happens I think they're gonna need a long ass Red Wings style rebuilt
14th overall for 14th overall lol. That’s pretty funny
Any trust fund baby wanting playing time guarantees in the nhl ain't gonna last long. Desperate moves to delay a rebuild don't work.
We're gonna see somthing in the next CBA prevent this id bet money on it. Its been happen to much in the past few years, i got a feeling owner and gms are tried of this, i believe for Chl its after their 20th birthday to become unrestricted FAs, maybe a system for all prospects like from 17-20 the team has total control, but at 20 if hes not signed maybe he become an unsigned RFA and every one can try to negotiate with them and maybe it guaranteed compensation like if he was a first you get theirs or if he was a 4th you get a 4th an so.
Kids a little bitch. He’ll fit in great with Crosby.
Choo choo!🚂
Can you hear that?
It's the sound of the Pittsburgh Penguins 2024 Stanley Cup train!
Why yager
Winnipeg gets a good hard nosed Canadian with offensive skills and the Pens get a entitled American who plays for his own glory . The leafs just made a player exactly like that their captain
