Remember the trade the Pens got for Jagr? I don't remember them either… You won't know these three bums either.
Fire Dubas! That should be the chant at the next Pens game… He sucks as bad as Canada
Remember, this is the guy who assigned 'himself' as GM. He was just supposed to be President of Hockey Operations
1000% a horrible trade. What is are they thinking. Why trade him for garbage? Jake wanted to stay and they could of afford him. Kyle dubas and Fenway sports are going to screw the penguins up so bad. Other teams got 1st round picks for player that are no where as good as Jake. Bullshit…
Worst trade in Penguins history!! They literally got nothing for Guentzel. Dubas is the worst GM in the NHL, and he's destroying the Penguins worse than he did the Maple Leafs!!!
The hurricanes have shown they are capable of making a cup run, being the only team to take down the panthers recently. It would seem thay the penguins have confidence the hurricanes could make it happen with the trade and get a bigger return.
Carolina bent over and Kyle and gave it to him good
Very underwhelming to say the least. This better not be the only move.
This sucks. Gonna miss you Jake, goodluck in Carolina đ„ș
Thats a lot to pay for a rental. I did think that it was going to be Blake coming back though. Bunting played on Matthews line before he signed his deal w/ carolina. Do you expect Smith, Ned and ruhwedel to also be traded?
Dubas needs to go! His very short tenure is already a disaster! Every move he has made had backfired to this point. The guys he has kept, the free agents he has signed, the trades he has made…all have blown up in his face!
Is there a scenario where the pens would trade Karlsson back to ottawa for jakob chychrun? read that the new management is not sold on chychrun.
I don't buy the notion that 'this is a price for a rental' stuff. Claude Giroux was a rental for the panthers and the flyers got a 1st and top prospect (tippett) and a mid-round pick. It was just a pathetic job by dubas and would be a fireable offense for anyone else. Unless by some miracle he hit's 50 grandslams on trade deadline day, dubas time so far has been terrible and I honestly think hextall would have done better in trading guentzel
This year is exactly like last year. The common theme is this washed up core. All of them! Be excited about stocking young players and getting back to the playoffs in a couple years.
Boooo Fenway Sports Group and Dubas!! A bad trade to the Canes a trade, to the in division Canes!! For peanuts. Hextall like move here
I've heard podcasters in Toronto talk about how Dubas loves "his guys". That's seriously what it looks like here. He's got guys he likes for whatever reason and he wants them regardless of what it costs and how they'll fit. And I think that was Ryan Graves and other guys too but now Bunting is the latest. If this is how he's going to do business I worry for the Pens future. I'm glad he traded Smith. I still think with proper developing he could be good. Like Graves, he wasn't bad in NJ he just doesn't fit in Pitt.
Go get a cup with Carolina, and come back next year. No sweat.
I don't get why everyone is so down on Dubas. He's been with the team 9 months, and walked into a mess. I think his work so far is admirable with the crap he's moved out, and still needs a few more weak links gone today. I'm excited to see what he does to re-tool in the offseason, obviously hope that involves re-signing Jake.
jarry needs to go dudes a back up at best
The trade is not as bad as Penguin fans are making it out to be.
Sean Walker got a first, Adam Henrique got a first.
Thank you for being more reasonable then pretty much anyone else.
Looks like I'll be cheering for the Canes to win it all so the Pens can maximize their return in the Guentzel trade!
I don't like to be so harsh but it's time to call a spade a spade…. this gm is Hextall 2.0 and I'm sick of it! Absolutely got hosed

There's no reason why Koppanen should be on the 4th line over Ponomarev
If Malkin and Carter were moved last year or earlier Jake would still be a Penguin.
