Some copium from Rust but hey I love to hear it. Would we have beaten them in a 7 game series? Probably not. Would we have at least won 1-2 games? Definitely. There's no way guys like Crosby/Malkin come out of that series with 0 points a piece.
Necas over shayne. Necas is YOUNGER. shayne is OLD. Again nick b enough with the old guys we need youth no more old men
I think part of this Rust mentality is stemming from the 2021-2022 playoffs. NYR had NO business winning that series. Pitt outplayed them consistently and lost in 7. It made no sense. Having said that, Pitt's PP would have killed them and don't think they would have won in a 7 game series this season. But i like the attitude.
I loved the rust interview
I love acciari and eller, they both perform their roles very well. But they have some value and trading them both does free up 4.5 mil, not insignificant
I could see Kyle Dubas going all sketchy and stick a first line left winger beside Sid for the league minimum, or close to it.
A 2x$1MM show me contract.
He has done it before ( Michael Bunting) he can do it again.
I have a particular player in mind and so does Dubas, and if this player is not qualified and thus becomes a UFA July 1st….I can see Dubas STRIKE…then sink back into the night!
(Although there is a lot more to be done).
I'm not sure pens beat the rags. But as a New Yorker, I can tell you that my friends who are rags fans did not want to play the pens in the first round. They were super happy to get the craps.
The pens would of definitely given the Rangers a better fight
How about sid at 3 years for $10.87/yr?
Nieto stays on LTIR all year, right? I do think they move smith but will they move acciari? Do they tender POJ? No way someone takes on graves contract unless its a team like Utah who currently has no defensemen on their NHL roster.
😂Penguins beating the Rangers😂..There aren’t too many bottom teams the Pens could beat in a 7 game series it doesn’t matter the part of the year either.
Who cares if they might have beaten the rangers or not? U gotta make the dance before you dance.
