Shore is someone I wouldn't have minded the Penguins going after for 3C.He'd still be one of the fastest players in the league...Ducks get slower, but younger...
Kind of an odd deal, maybe it's just a shake up trade...Shore is smart and can dish, Cogs is fast and has no offense...

People are still out there trying to treat shots as equal...God bless'em... Sprong's average shot distance is something like 36 feet. I'd say the graph posted is complementary to that information - he isn't getting himself into the scoring areas, and the shots that he is getting on net aren't quali...

Only Patrik Laine and Mike Hoffman have consistently scored from that type of distance. Perhaps if Sprong were to find a way to try to create more offense in the zone and higher quality...

From Jason Mackey's 20 Penguin Thoughts yesterday: There’s one sweater I wished the Penguins would’ve picked: black, diagonal “PITTSBURGH” … the “Gin and Juice” jerseys. “I like the diagonal Pittsburgh thing, too,” Morehouse said. “You may see that at some point in the third jersey.” We can only hop...

I expect that Dumoulin, who is a game time decision, will be in the lineup, and the scratches to be Riikola, Ruhwedel, and Grant.

Nice. That sends a legit message...you're a bully, ******* cut the ****... Yep. I was hoping for 10, and thinking 20 was the right number.

Sportsnet reports Tom Wilson was hearing at 10:15am and is now over. I'd expect a decision to down around 2pm or so.

So I guess we won't have a third jersey this year?? I swear that we were supposed to be getting one, but haven't seen anything mentioned. I found one article that stated we may get one next season, but it was the only source, so I'm hesitant to trust it. The Penguins are supposed to be getting 3rd ...

Depending on how the season goes for him, and what his contract demands would be, I'd be open to it. Right, it's a big IF right now. If you recall, early in camp, I floated the idea of Riikola allowing the Penguins to move Schultz, which was more based on Schultz cap hit and current term. But, for ...

Jarry will go to WBS as soon as he is healthy. If it is past Thursday, then Jarry will start on SOIR (Season Opening IR) because he can't be sent to the AHL while injured. Nice to see Riikola make the team, but Sullivan is going to have his hands full trying to get him into some games. Sully is goin...

If you guys haven't seen it yet, Tom Wilson was being Tom Wilson today, drilling former Penguins (now Blue) Oscar Sundqvist with a dirty blindside hit. I have the video of that hit, and a bunch of other top "hits" from Wilson in a new blog post. NHL needs to Raffi Torres him at this point. https://r...

Putting Sprong with Cullen isn’t the worst idea. It's pretty close. Not a fan. I don't even need to see Sprong with Crosby, but would have thought at a minimum 3rd line.

Riikola looked good. Can he be sent to WB w/o waivers? How did Sprong look last night? Riikola is on an entry level contract but since he's 24 I'm not totally sure.
