I just read the Flyers were scouting the Pens vs. Panthers. Weren't they exploring a Ghostibere trade recently? I'd trade Murray plus a prospect. I mean, shoot glove side on him and we win all day.

They were probably watching Florida haha

Why would the Flyers want Murray at this point?

Then if we aren't getting these inter division guys Toffoli and Saad should both be the target, but we'll probably get some off the wall trade lol. I do like Palmeri/Krieder as additions though.

Good trade article on the athletic today. Toffoli's asking price is around a 2nd and a prospect. Krieder bidding is only starting with a 1st. Saad is very unlikely to get traded.

It also mentioned that Galchenyuk's name is out there as well as Bjugstad.

Getting the first goal makes things a bit easier. You can get outplayed and still win. It happens all the time.

Don't believe me, ask yourself how many times this year did everyone from Sullivan to the media to us lowly fans say "we outplayed them and deserved a better fate." Then think about how many times that occurred when we gave up the first goal.

Murray will be battling Bobrovsky for playing time in Seattle.

Why would you ever consider the other teams needs when coming up with terrible trade ideas?

I dont believe that statement to be true.
- MattStrat


LOL, if we ALL knew what JJ is, it would be very simple... he signed a contract offered TO him by the Pens, and he plays WHERE HCMS places him. I don't recall him making any salary demands on GMJR and I haven't heard anything about him demanding where he plays in the lineup.
If I were him I would do the same and tune out all the noise, not that anyone outside HB pays any attention to HB.

As Boyd and others have pointed out. All of Letang's issues can't be blamed on JJ but RW loves to bash him.

Letang looks exhausted. That or he's battling injury or an illness. He looked like someone drained half of his blood last night.

- Thorny87


He needs to shorten up his shifts... he's looked that way for a while now.

It was pretty fun (frank)ing with Vegas last night, I must say. They try to heckle and are just terrible.

Being the relatively new franchise with quite the success so far, they are simply still too tickled to heckle. You have to be deeply bitter, like Flyers fans are, to heckle properly.

He has averaged under a minute per shift for the last 5 or 6 games.

Great win for the Pens last night and they could not have done it w/o MAF's play in goal.

OK... then he has to take fewer shifts. He's making JJ work WAY too hard.

Their whole “shame shame shame” thing when someone goes to the box is pathetic.

Did you catch them booing the super-obvious delay of game penalty in the 3rd?

Pens record:
Scoring first...........17-2-2
Opp. scores first.....9-10-3
Out-shooting opp...15-9-4
Out shot by opp.....9-3-1

Seven is probably accurate.

They honestly put on a really great event there. The fans are mostly great. New fans learning hockey, but there's quite a few who try to act like they know what they're talking about and it's funny.

This one dude behind me kept yelling, "Get on the wing!" every time a Vegas player had the puck. LOL My gf doesn't know TOO much about hockey, but she gets the basics and even she was like what the (frank) is that guy talking about?

Also, and I'm sure this will come as a shock to people here, I can be a bit obnoxious at games, so I got in a bit of a shouting match with some dippoop and security came over to him and told him to chill out lol

Knights Fans (or Knightards, as I prefer) literally think hockey was invented on October 2, 2017 to unite the community following the 1 October Shootings.

I’m completely serious.

Yes, but show me fans of a team at a live game who don't boo every time their team takes a penalty lol

I think that might be the case with the Predators as well. Most of the fans come out because there is a chance to see a fight. It's like WWF on ice.
