Most fans and tv analysts: without letang the pens won't win the cup because they don't have an elite d-man

Justin Schultz: hold my beer

The Penguins just printed these out for the media in regards to goalie interfere rulings.
Yes, by the book, absolutely was goalie interference.

@joshtmaust Should’ve never been the starter

[Matt Traczynski @matt_traz]

Dubas says this and hints in every possible way they are not competing this year and want to gain assets. Yet everyone is angry when he gets assets and acts like he is trying to compete.

He isn’t lying, he just never said he’s trying to make them competitive this year.

[Danny Shirey @DannyShireyPGH]

Kyle Dubas is either lying about trying to make the Penguins competitive or he’s just not a remarkable GM. Or both.

[Matt Traczynski @matt_traz]

@yinzzzerr Seemed like the window is already cooked , and with what GMKD had been saying his plan is there was no reason to keep him even on a 8x8. There is also no guarantee he would’ve signed 8x8 here.

[Matt Traczynski @matt_traz]

@j_a155 Why would we want to sign him to that? We aren’t going to be competitive the first 5 years of that at least and he (most likely) will fall off by the end of it.

Why would Guentzel want to sign that here when he could go to a competitive team and win?

[Matt Traczynski @matt_traz]

I fear a lot of running backs would get outplayed by Jaylen Warren…

[Brett Kollmann @BrettKollmann]

The whole point of taking a running back in the first round is that you hope they are good enough to justify six years of contract control, and then they leave and you get a new one.

But if they only make it four years and get outplayed by Jaylen Warren…now you got problems.

[Matt Traczynski @matt_traz]

Believe GMJR drafted Blomqvist

[Matt Traczynski @matt_traz]

@DannyShireyPGH What do you think the reason is that they are so bad at finishing? Is it the depth, core, coaching or something else. Finishing feels like luck to me but it’s been consistently bad there has to be a reason.

[Matt Traczynski @matt_traz]

@lennert_eric Okay Kevin Colbert Jr. The gm definitely doesn’t lead the draft process.

[Matt Traczynski @matt_traz]

@Alex_Kozora His last 3-4 drafts really show this

[Matt Traczynski @matt_traz]

Surely he must’ve had Derrick Henry in 2022 and not Cordarrelle Patterson and Tyler Allgeier

[MikedUpSports @MikedUpSports1]

“But Arthur Smith was a successful OC in Tennessee!”

I could have been successful.

Turn around and hand the ball to Derrick Henry.

Rinse. Repeat.

[Matt Traczynski @matt_traz]

Then a 6’5” QB born in Ohio was drafted as the next franchise QB 🤔

Look away Pitt fans 🫣

[Baku 🐧 @Mazursky8895]

This is almost eerie when you think about it.

2003: 10 win Steelers had #8 Tommy Maddox went to the playoffs with an early exit with a team plagued by injuries which was enough to make them evaluate they were a QB away from being contenders.

2023: 10 win Steelers who have #8 Kenny Pickett went to the playoffs with an early exit with a team plagued by injuries

20 years later does history repeat itself and they look elsewhere or do they stick with the #8 this time?

[Pittsburgh Penguins @penguins]

For the first time in Pittsburgh Penguins history, we have a GOALIE GOAL!

[Sean Clifford @seancliff14]

Bet

[Matt Traczynski @matt_traz]

Kenny Pickett 2 touchdown game
