Losing Tanev was heartbreaking… Let's Go Pens, so excited for the upcoming season 🤘🤘
"Dragging….into the fight" I've heard Bunting described this way too
I am anticipating ellers centering the 4th line to start, which would slide both accari and lizz to the wings. I'm reserving some excitement about lizzote because many predicted accari to be the tanev type and I didn't see that last season. My hope is that an overly qualified (but aging) eller can anchor the middle of the ice and let the two wings (who have speed and tenacity) cause chaos. It would go a long way to get the tanev version of accari back (by sliding him to wing) and having a younger more tenacous lizzote on the other wing. A fourth line that has a bit of that buzzsaw vibe would make the penguins a heck of a lot "harder to play against" and give them a better chance at closing out leads (especially with eller at c).
DK, my worry then is what would/does the third line look like and what is their role.
Only team to lose 2 players to the exp draft. McCann was given away too .
Losing Tanev still hurts
