Everybody Hates Raymond Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 https://twitter.com/MAGodin/status/609068894666518528 Earlier threads were speculation, this is now confirmed. New news = new thread, I guess? Penguins have decided to go for a full youth movement on defense, won't bring back Martin and Ehrhoff. They'd rather invest on wingers. I could see Edmonton going after Martin. Hope Benning has a slight interest in Ehrhoff for the right price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need guys who can play defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdatb Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Wouldn't mind bringing Erhoff back. Probably can't fit him under the cap though. Erhoff >>>>>>>>>> Sbisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
250Integra Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Investing on wingers? did they not see what a thin and injured defense did to them during the final stretch (where they almost missed the playoffs) and during the playoffs itself? Plus, they traded away a solid defensive prospect in Despres for a nobody.. Maybe they're trying to throw an offer at Dougie Hamilton? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Mind Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Does Pittsburgh not want to win? I don't think they realize you need defencemen, and quality depth to be successful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldnews Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I can see why they'd like their young D, but the "rather invest in wingers" part made me lol. They've been fracking up the balance of their team for years chasing shiny wingers. Good luck Pittsburgh. You do strange things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldnews Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 Despres is obviously ready for a bigger role.... ....wait... No kidding eh. What a dumbass move - and to Anaheim of all places. Maata, Pouliot, DuMoulin, Harrington - some pretty good young D, but it'd look a hell of a lot better with Despres in that list. Still can't believe they did that. Such a rich franchise. Stupid, rich franchise. Glad I don't like that team - they'd drive me nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupid, rich franchise. Glad I don't like that team - they'd drive me nuts. They also had Joe Morrow (traded for Brendan Morrow), Philip Samuelsson, Robert Bortuzzo, and Jake Muzzin over that time. That's a full and balanced future blueline corps, 1D through 8D, that all they have to show for the return is Ian Cole and Ben Lovejoy. Brutal.

theminister Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 but a nice recovery renting Douglas Murray for a pair of 2nds! Exactly. People like to criticize Crosby and Malkin for only winning once but if the organization had been a top ten asset management group and built rather than test down they'd have won at least one more.

Baer. Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 I could see Jackman going to Edmonton. You could pretty much say that about any blueliner at this point. That's how bad their D is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
