Wow I feel like he looks bigger than he did last time I saw him. Keep bulking brotha!!!
They're still wearing Adidas jerseys?!
I’m excited to see this kid in the big leagues in the next year or so.
Probably back to junior unless he kills it in camp this year
Id love to see him on Genos wing
Im stoaked for this kid! Great in juinors hope he shines this year!
Probably going back to junior
@@JHockeyFan Makes more sense and more "cents". Unless he 100% ready ... Can't be sent to AHL. It'll be great when he's ready for NHL or can spend time in the AHL.
I wanna see Murashov!
Looking like Joshua Jackson in Mighty Ducks.
😂
Bust.
You’re a bust, Pickering will be good
He's 20 years old, what are you some kind of seer?
Edmonton Oilers first round pick Sam O'Reilly would be a good young player for the Penguins! If they could spring him free at a fair price.
Welcome to Pittsburgh Harry and Tanner!
sorry did you just say logan thompson is better then jarry 😂😂😂
A+ plus audio!
lol….. you do such a great job with personality!!! Good job!!!
Please invest in a new xlr cable.
It's not the cable--it's the phantom powered Irig which connects the studio equipment to a macbook. Have ordered cables to bypass.
You can't even think about messing with the chemistry Malkin has with Bunts
Dan, do yourself a favor and check the cable connected to the Mic. I do audio engineering. Sounds like you have a faulty mic cable. At least try pulling the cable out and reattaching it..
I think cameraman has been drinking
dubas is EXACTLY the same caliber as hextall. Listen im not buying his act. he tries to use fancy vocabulary and wear glasses to present himself as a intellectual or highly intelligent but in reality he is THE EXACT OPPOSITE. Trust me...and tell me i was right if he is still with the penguins two years from now.
Pens signing Tarasenko as Im watching this
This nerd isn’t going to help the pens at all😂! He is almost as worthless as Ron Hextall!
Not sure what some of these fans want? If Dubas had swung for the fence by signing a big name and got the same result, then what? Dan, do a video or livestream and ask these guys to be the GM.
So they effectively strike this season, okay...but then you lose yet another year of Crosby and Malkin.
IMO Crosby, Malkin, Letang are not in the picture for any push. They are waiting for the retirements and in rebuild mode so these picks can come on in 2-3 yrs.
Instead of seeing what this offseason has been we spend time trying to make the moves sound better than they are....these moves were just outright irrelevant moves. And in many ways a wasted off season. I don't get it. Players that were 4th line and scratch players who all of a sudden are going to become something more? He did the same in Toronto, spent the first couple of years getting picks, prospects and expiring contracts......great....wasted 2 years...then did nothing with those acquisitions......I don't mean to be insulting but I think people in Pittsburgh are delusional about Dubas and the moves.
It is a carbon copy of Dubas's time in Toronto.
People in Pittsburgh celebrate Dubas' moves and I don't get it. I lived in Toronto, saw first hand what he did there. And he is doing the carbon copy here.....he came into Toronto, got a ton of picks and prospects, people in Toronto were excited...he then made no good moves with them....over the course of his time there he was unable to build a bottom 6, unable to build a bottom 4 d, and made horrible assessment of goalies. Gave out too much money and term on his contracts......The team is not better today than it was last year....look at the Capitals, look at Nashville, in 2 years these teams made shrewd moves and are 'contenders' again. Dubas hasn't won a decision in a long time (I think Ryan O'Reilly is the only won in Toronto).....Dubas' MO is clear, and one is take flyers on a bunch of scratched D, and Scratched or 4th line forwards from other teams in hopes that they all of a sudden do amazing.....it never worked in Toronto and it hasn't worked in Toronto. Former players and execs are shaking their head at Dubas in Pittsburgh, but everyone in Pittsburgh think he is doing some good job or something.....he's an average GM given he reigns of this organization and Sid's last years, what a waste. Pittsburgh was a perpetual talking point, Pittsburgh has become irrelevant in the league now...and they didn't need to be with Sid here.
He was new and young in Toronto, he did a lot of great things that other GMs wouldn't think of doing but he also made mistakes and I would imagine learned a great deal from the experience. I think Shanny also may have put a few spanners in plans that Kyle had and forced his hand on a few things. This time it's all Kyle. Time will tell if he shits the bed again. I'm optimistic.
That may be true. Let’s hope he’s learned. Except if you look at what he did in Toronto. He is doing the exact same thing. So so far it doesn’t appear like he has learned. Every former player or executive or coach who is commenting on Pittsburgh are shaking their heads, and frustrated for Sid. I feel the same.
💯. I didn’t like us bringing in Dubas. He’s never done anything that I was impressed with. At this point, he is not quite, but not very far from a younger version of Hextall. I know people will point to the fact that he got rid of all of those bad contracts in exchange for Erik Karlsson. Kind of impressive, but the sharks were also desperate to dump that contract. And I just didn’t see a need for a $10 million defenseman who doesn’t play defense. I mean Letang is a cheaper version. he doesn’t know how to identify good solid bottom 6 forwards. I know people will also praise him for getting rid of Riley Smith contract, which is great but I don’t know. Is that him being a genius or is that just Chris Drury being stupid?
Ohhhhh Dubie. Good talker. Reilly wanted out and apparently made no bones about that.
Your audio problems somehow remind me of the Penguins organization for the last 5 years or so.
Damn man, I think we got the point, thank you sir for the update. I hope we won't be as bad as the casual hockey no-nothings predict. Guess we'll see this season
Good lord. They signed a bunch of bums. It’s like the Pirates dumpster dives. They are worse on paper than they were at the end of last season.
And? What happened,run out of data 😅?
He probably slept in
HE DOING REBUILD LIKE THE MOVES HE DOING IS LIKE REBUILD
Best move this clown ever made. Addition by subtraction dumping Smith and POJ
Rebuild. Not rebound.
This guy Dubas is brutal. I feel bad for Sid, he's going to waste the last years of his career. For picks and prospects that he has shown no ability to turn into a team. He did the same in Toronto, with top 2 lines that was as good as any in the NHL and couldn't build a bottom 6, couldn't get bottom 4 Dmen and poorly assessed goalies. I have zero faith he will do better here in Pittsburgh....I don't know why this guy just got handed all the reigns as President when he has not shown to have the ability to do a good job as a GM
I blame Hextall for the mess we are in more than Dubas
Dubas is definitely the wrong person to fix anything. He was nowhere near ready to be the GM in Toronto and really fucked that up over there.. Sid, Gino and Letang should jump ship and chase a final championship elsewhere.
@@DrOcelot667 I'm not arguing the Hextall part, but you will see with Dubas, he is as average a GM as hextall....for some reason he is treated like this gem of a diamond even though he does not have a resume to match that praise.
@@josephflores5821 Good to hear someone recognize Dubas. I live in Toronto, not a single person in media, former player, former exec, speak highly of dubas, all feel like he was over his head and in hindsight was not ready to be a GM and made way more bad moves than good moves.
What are you in the Arctic?
Kind of funny but this move, more than any other, has finally made me realize we're rebuilding. A 2027 second and retaining 25% of contract, and no player to take the place of Reilly Smith. Yeah he had a bad year but still. Seems like Kyle is very focused on the future and not so much the present. Probably for the best but that's a little rough. And i'm not sure about this whole thing where Kyle signs everyone and their mother, to a 1- year deal, to see if any of them fit with the team. It's like a huge quantity over quality decision.
There’s still a lot of offseason and cap space left. The move that sends smith out doesn’t have to be the same move that brings in his replacement. The league doesn’t have to work in the way that you either rebuild or go all in and no in between. Some moves are for the future, some are for now. The bruins, for example, have been doing that for years. I think it’s just that lately most of the moves feel like future moves because Rutherford and hextall were so negligent with that aspect of moves. They were pedal to the metal always. And reckless in hextall’s case. I think Dubas realized that going forward you need to refill the cupboard at least a little. If this team is in a playoff spot at the deadline I’d be surprised if he refused to send out a first to load up like we’d hope.
@@zeusthedrumlord547 I'd agree with most of what you said except for having a lot of cap space left. We are bottom 10 in cap-space, its quite low. And like i said, i don't like Dubas' penchant for signing everyone and their mother to 1 year contracts, throwing things against a wall and hoping something sticks. I'm not a Dubas hater, but i think his analytics make him want to grab every player that is analytics tell him is worth it, based on cap-hit against projected production or whatever formula he has going on there.
@@TylerEL I didn’t check league wide but at the time I made that comment they had over 7 million which should be enough for a Reilly smith replacement and I wouldn’t be shocked if more was cleared up with either eller or rakell going out. But yeah I don’t disagree with anything you said either.
With Beauvillier and Lizotte signed, along with Hayes, Eller, Puljujarvi and Acciari… all the young players appear to be blocked for a roster spot. So no chance for Poulin, Ponomarov, Puustinen, Broz, Koivunen, Gruden, etc. to win a spot out of camp. Surprised no one is asking about this.
Pusti is better than anyone they've signed the last few days....he'll make the team
Five of the bottom 6 is now Hayes, Eller, Beuavillier, Acciari and Lizotte… those guys are locks based on their contracts. The 6th spot is between Puustinen, Puljujarvi, Bemstrom, Ponomarov, Poulin, etc.
Audio is terrible
It's a rebuild, just need to accept it. At least it will not be as bad as th X Generation of the Penguins. Let's go Pens!
Rebuild requires you to trade your good players.. this is most definitely not a rebuild
@@terpoholicsloth9227 Exactly....4th line last year were complete stiffs. Dumping Smith and POJ (2 complete duds) was a must. Team is already better than last season.
This fruity guy is the worst gm in the league! Not even close👈
I always enjoy that Nick Pryor has to do this press conference once a year and always seems so annoyed.
🤢😖
Hayes??? Didn't fit into Flyers youth rebulid...but he fits OURS???...this guy CAN NOT get in the way of a younger players development or roster spot...short vision move
Apples and orange. Flyers were going younger without trying to win.
@NationalHockeyNow how many games are the PENS going to win??? How many games is HAYES going to be effective in??? How many seasons are we going to DELAY...a investment of youth
Please please for the love of God if Stamkos makes to to free agency snag him!
Please please for the love of God if Stamkos makes to to free agency snag him!
had a seizure reading this
Pens fans are whiny
I don't know Dubas' plan, is he trying to get better today or not? Because Eller is better option than Hayes, Smith is also better option than Hayes. Hayes has gotten softer as he has gotten older. Acciari brings more to the PK than Hayes.....if this move was just to get a 2nd rounder. Then for the sake of a draft pick your team is worse off today. I've commented before, but I have never liked the way Dubas builds a team, just a lack of ability to build a bottom 6 in a manner that actually works..Toronto with all its top end talent had a horrible bottom 6, and it wasn't because Dubas didn't make moves...he just never made the right one.
I have no issue if they dont qualify POJ but sign him for less than what a potential qualifier would be.
I would like the Hayes trade better if/once smith was/is traded. They need that $5M to be spent elsewhere.
Alexander Holtz? Rutger Mcgrorty? Nope sorry, Kevin Hayes
😂 Nice to see others expressing the same sentiment as me
Years ago Hayes was a bum...pointless trade....clueless GM
