JR prefers lovely veteran puck movers not lovely veteran defensive dmen. Someone like Hainsey is the type of guy he loves. Bring us all the Bret Hedicans and Frantisek Kaberles

Brass needs to wait another six, seven seconds before letting that shot go, just to make sure everyone's in position and ready for it.

Look Around You posted:So do the pens take a run at shattenkirk this offseason? I mean they need to do something about their depth at D behind Letang and (to a lesser extent) Schultz. With their, what, like $34 of cap space? Shattenkirk is gonna cost $6M/year minimum Also Jultz is a free agent too so welp.

Jultz is going to cost a pretty penny. If they can get Shattenkirk instead even if it costs 1-2M more and they have to give more term, that's probably a good decision

So at what point does Sullivan actually consider just playing two or three forwards as defensemen just to get someone back there that can competently move the puck It's not like they can do much worse in their own end than Cole And Friends

So good one of his coaches (Babcock?) thought he could win a Norris if he wanted to play D There was someone that the Pens had that did it in the mid to late 90s I want to say. Edit: I would like it noted they were mostly bad at both. But those Pens teams weren't exactly good.

JawKnee posted:What kind of D-man do the Pens need? Bet they could fleece Tanev from Vancouver if they wanted to try it. I think our defense is pretty much what we are going to have next year. Our best hope is that Letang decides he doesn't need any additional bionic parts and stays healthy.

I would be legit curious about Crosby playing 28 minutes as a defenseman, it would be more interesting than anything else that's going to happen this series

a lot of really crappy players would play forward or defense. which is kind of ridiculous because its a lot harder to hide a 12th forward than a 6th defenseman. belak played both. john scott. i remember early in his career the senators played phillips at forward. and then they used borowiecki at forward for some reason.

It's a shame Doumolin can't play like 30 minutes a night. Carter has been pretty good as well, but no goals so not particularly relevant.
