LTS Posted April 14, 2023 Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 I don't mind Burke as some level of hockey involved person... but has he done anything for a hockey team's management group lately? The shake-up in Pittsburgh will be significant. I'm just waiting for someone here to suggest the Sabres sign Mike Sullivan when he become available... you know it's coming.

Yea... because if they had made the playoffs and lost 4-0 in the first round (they would have) these guys would have definitely kept their jobs... for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd prefer Hextall stay in the east so as to diminish the playoff competition that the Sabres face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matter2003 Posted April 14, 2023 Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 Knew that was coming after new ownership took over. Especially with missing the playoffs for the first time in forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree. Hextall is actually pretty decent at this GMing thing IMHO. Filly's been flat out horrible since he left. And, it's tough to argue against trying to keep the window with Crosby, Malkin, and Letang open as long as he could do so. Can't see any of them in other uniforms and the cupboard has been barren since long before Hextall showed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brawndo Posted April 14, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 Rumor out of Toronto is that FSG will go full court press to hire Kyle Dubas if he leaves the Leafs FSG is Fenway Sports Group owners of the Pens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
French Collection Posted April 14, 2023 Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 Crosby, Letang and Malkin need to share the blame. They thought they could make another run at it instead of moving on. I’m not sad for them but they delayed the rebuild. They will be one year older next season. Lemieux sold at the right time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be fine with him moving to Pittsburgh. THAT's the guy that needs to stay in conference. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthEbriate Posted April 14, 2023 Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 52 minutes ago, PASabreFan said: Missing the playoffs is unacceptable. This has nothing to do with the playoffs. Hextall was a dead GM walking for the new ownership. National pundits have been hearing this rumor for months. It was just a question of how quickly after the season ended did they can him. He was not going to be allowed to lead the team in the draft or new/next direction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawerchuk Posted April 14, 2023 Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 May the playoffs evade them for seasons to come. It would be glorious! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashsabre Posted April 14, 2023 Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 (edited) From Mario to Jagr to Malkin to Crosby. Pens have been blessed with special players for a long time. They can suffer through lean years now. No franchise players for them for a while. Edited April 14, 2023 by Flashsabre 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pens have been blessed with special players for a long time. They can suffer through lean years now. No franchise players for them for a while. All they had to do was keep Crosby, let Letang and Malkin go to UFA, and save cash. Trade off everyone (Jarry, I guess) as a rental during the season and weave their Penguin-waddling magic for Bedard. Then, re-sign Letang and Malkin and Rust who would've all suspiciously signed one-year deals this season... and boom, igloo reassembled.

I think maybe I thought that Hextall was the bozo who gave up a 1st for Ristolainen (sp?). Not so, it turns out. He gave out that big contract to JvR, right? I'll laugh at him for that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
