A message to the Pens and a good move to boot
Wow, trading to an in division rival? Excellent work Pit, you really make things easy on yourself
I’m not surprised penguins are hot garbage rn
Eller was so good in Pitt 😭
Great pick up for Washington
Dubas as GM is one of worst hiring. Tries to make a splash trade by acquiring Erik Karlsson. What a waste of precious cap space.
Let’s go caps!!!
The trade was Dubas’s way to send a message to the team ..
Trade a likable guy in the locker room – also a leader in the room – as a response to the 6-0 deficit to the Stars after the 1st period last night … he WANTED to make it seem like the PENS got really nothing in the trade for a very valuable player – it stings worse that way
Rutherford did the same thing back in ‘18 with Carl Hagelin because the team wasn’t performing . Though the team got Tanner Pearson I think – so it was a hockey trade . I think Dubas got pretty much nothing (for now) on purpose to let the team know that everyone but SID is expendable .
Because last nights game … that was hard to watch ..
Adams Grave perfected for canucks top 4 Big Boy
At the end when you said the person said “can we take Marcus Patterson please” – you said Vancouver fans – I think you’re confusing it with Elias .
Marcus is (or WAS) the PENS BEST stay at home defenseman – he’s still on the PENS but has had a very rough start of the year …
No playoffs for penguins i guess
As a Caps fan, really glad management made a move sooner rather than later but I wish they went for a long term solution. I wish they were more aggressive and had gotten a better player in their prime that would be a Center on this team for several years to come, even if it cost them a young piece like Lapierre. They now have a 35 year old Eller and a 34 year old Dowd as their bottom 6 centers. The team was doing well because they had gotten significantly younger. So in that respect it feels like a step backwards. I would have preferred a faster younger player with a more expensive price tag for sure to really make that 3rd line into a threat. Not sure Eller does anymore than stabilize it and stop the bleeding.
Bro ur so cringe, 5 mins in and u still haven’t even talked about the capitals
Caps made a great deal getting Eller back. He’s gonna stabilize our one line that has been struggling
Welcome back Lars!
Not the player Pens need to move but it’s a start…I guess.
Penguins is a dumpster fire
this is a freaking HORRIBLE trade for Pitts……..
Good deal for the Caps. Strome, Eller, PLD up the middle 1, 2, 3. Caps copied the Pens 3 center model when they won the Cup with Backstrom, Kuzy, and Eller. Pens had Sid, Geno, and HBK with Bonino and or Jordan Staal in 2009.
Pens are now worse without Eller. Caps are better.
Pitt will give up everyon3 this year just like the kings did in 96. Pitt shame on Crosby. Ovechkin would rather be second on goals list than leave. Shame on Pitt Crosby f he goes like malkin.
The Pens should of tried selling off Dubas first
Mangi Eller Leonard will be a nice 3rd line for playoffs
Dubass is one of the WORST managers to ever be employed in the NHL. Terrible what he did in Toronto. Why did the pens hire him. He doesn't know what he's doing.
Slow down man…the Caps have never lost in the 1st round to the Seattle Kraken 🙂
