Dubas will get him with the 3.5 mil left with cap space..He's big but plays soft (see anyone on the penguins roster). Penguins rid dumoulin and got graves, I was thrilled thinking the penguins finally got something of a banger? Here's a shocker he's a retread of dumoulin.. Should have known with GM sullivan and dubas. They don't call them the pittsburgh pansies for nothing.

You are very ignorant to think Graves would be similar to Dumoulin. Dumoulin in his prime was a defensive specialist. Graves never was.

I just want to fast forward until October. I’d be through the poop I have going on and it would be hockey season again. Best time of year. Gets darker earlier with less heat and humidity

He was an excellent defensive dman in his prime. He's been washed for years now.

Makes sense, then why Verbeek signed him.

Strome - Killorn why not Dummo another washed player…

The only two guys were Verbeek signed that turned out to be any good Were Gudas and Frankie.

And he paid those two guys significantly less than those three clowns above…

The actual story is that a few teams have promised JVR a camp tryout. But his agent is still hoping to get a guaranteed deal somewhere. Big news!

Ignorant? No, just comparing the 2 is all? I just thought graves brought more physical play, but neither player played physical at all. That's all I was saying. You can insert scuderi instead of dumoulin if you'd like though? Same difference. Relax there sunshine..
