Kyle Dubas explains Penguins trading Tristan Jarry to Oilers

  1. Skinner is accomplished with 2 Stanley Cup finals. This might be the fresh start he needs with a little added depth on defense. Good luck Penguins 2026 is every teams year to believe. 🧩

  2. What a move by Dubas!! Upgrade the goalie, add a quality top 6 Dman AND get a pick out of it. Plus neither the goalie or D have term so they can walk or flip them if needed

  3. As an Oilers fan, Pittsburgh 100% won this trade! Both Skinner and Kulak were important parts of the last two cup runs! Plus a 2nd round pick, and no retention.

  4. Mr Jarry won the 2014 Memorial Cup with the Edmonton Oil Kings. During the tournament, he was in net for a triple-overtime win against Val d'Or, still the longest game in Memorial Cup history. The Oilers have some upside in this 🙂.

  5. Loving that we are building for the future. This season is hopeless. Need to prepare for life after Sid and Geno and Letang. They are no longer dominant talents. Need to find our new young corps.

  6. Dubas absolutely fleeced Edmonton. He got the better goalie, a draft pick, and the only oiler that actually can play defense.

  7. At least in PGH, Dubas has shown the moxie & demonstrated responsible stewardship in what's been entrusted to him as GM, unlike the stark contrast to his Dumb & Dumber GM counterparts within the 412's 7-mile circle.

  8. I think this will be a fresh new start for Skinner. Brett Kulak is also a solid big defense man.

    This was a good deal for Penguins and very risky deal for Oil.

  9. Two goalies needing a change of scenery. That's all this deal is.
    Two teams washing their hands of goalies they didn't believe in.

  10. No one really cares who the Oilers get especially Gary Bettman because every April it is "Passover" for all Canadian Teams especially if they make the finals. Bettman 31 – Canada ZERO.

  11. Hopefully it works out, the Pens have spent a lot of time picking up guys the last few seasons that had potential and that fades a dozen games in

  12. GREAT trade for the Penguins in several ways. (1) If one or both of these guys can turn it around then maybe you can extend them at a reasonable salary for a year or two. (2) OR both on expiring contracts and you have more cap room for next season going into Free Agency and you get a 2nd round pick, all be it not until 2029. (3) If one of them has a great next couple months then maybe someone is interested at the trade deadline and you get another pick or two for the future.

  13. Skinner is an upgrade for Pittsburgh.The guy have played for the worst defensive team for the last 3-4 years and saw his good amount of shots.Unless Pittsburgh decide to play like idiots and Crosby becomes a pee-wee caliber leader like McDavid there is 0 chances that Skinner is not gonna put up better nymbers and even be allowed to save game by himself with a structured team in front of him.

  14. Kyle Dubas should be arrested for the atrocities suffered at the hands of the Oilers. Great moves Kyle!
