I agree with Nick
Some day Crosby will walk off into the sunset and retire just like Malkin .
My homie and fellow beacherâŠFinn Harding.
I know heâs a 7th rounderâŠbut if he could latch on to Wilkes this seasonâŠI would be over the moon!
Tired of everyone dissing Malkin and kissing Crosby's big azz .
I think if you trade the dragon, you take your team further away from success, so I'd keep him. I think you need to keep some pieces around with crosby. Otherwise, your going to have to go out and sign another less quality dman. So I get he may bring in the most but I also question what the rest of the league thinks of him or if he's even on any ones radar.
Dang, no mention of Broz. Hella underrated, eh? Joking aside, I feel like there's an intagibility to Rutger McGroarty that not a lot of people talk about when you juxtapose him and Yager. While sure, Rutger is deemed to be more NHL ready now, he has this sort of moxy or aura about him that really sets him apart. I could easily see him wearing the C after Crosby and that's not really something I saw in Yager. Sure, Rutger doesn't have the skating that a lot of young prospects do, but this is a guy that was leading the NCAA in points at point and was at the top of the leaderboards prior to his injury. He's a winner in spite of his shortcomings as prospect. I'm pretty stoked to see him in a Pens uni.
The Pens should have never signed Graves. Graves is the money and term needed to sign Marcus Pettersson. Dubas made that decision.
If Mr Groaty can be a productive power forward for the Penguins for a long-term then it is a good trade!!
