Sujet: What a Healthy Penguins Team couldve look like
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>My guess is internal matter.
They expected Oleksiak to be aggressive with a player like wilson who was targeting players. Instead he wasn't. When they did fight Oleksiak just let him jump him instead of going right after him. That was it. I think Oleksiak didn't want to be put in that situation to being with and that is where it ended. If you weren't going to be that guy, then there wasn't a place on the team for him.
Notice he was on the ice in the Stars vs Knights game and did nothing when Reaves was being a wrecking ball on Stars players. Hell Reaves even hit him in the head with a high stick. If you don't understand that is the exact reason why he was shipped out than you don't understand why he was brought in to begin with.</div></div>

That's why I wish we had Reaves and Oleksiak still on the team. Reaves was the true enforcer. The reason I liked Oleksiak was because he could throw his weight around, and for a big guy he was quite mobile. I feel like he actually found his game under Sullivan. Sure he wasn't a true tough guy, but he still could fight when he wanted. Being aggressive as defensemen isn't the best thing anyway. I seen him as a poor man's Chara.

Sujet: Rust Move and What it means (Discussion)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>cnb17</b></div><div>I guess the Pens didn't learn from their Sheary mistake. I think Rust is more of a versatile player than Sheary, but I would have never thought a $3.5/year. $3/year max. But you're right, trades have to be made now. They have to do something to strengthen the defense and contracts like Sheary's and Hunwick's don't allow that to happen. Would like to see Hags stay but he could also be on the move. If Sheahan doesn't re-sign, then the Pens could do ZAR, Simon, or Blueger to fill that 4th line center. Or they can try and get a guy like Beagle. Great at face-offs and solid defensively. If the Caps let him go.</div></div>

Buyout Hunwick. Sheary has one of the best possession stats in the league and does the dirty work in the corners. But I think he will be traded. Rust has 40pts and is worth 3.5 million.
