doox 15 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Sadly, Johnson bought himself some more time. Sprong got an entire 6 minutes of ice time, with nothing but a spot on the bench for the 3rd. Link to post Share on other sites
serge 904 Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Is Sprong getting 5 minutes just to piss off Rutherford? Link to post Share on other sites
doox 15 Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Yeah, that was basically a big FU, I think. Well, it worked - Johnston is out, Sullivan is now the HC. Link to post Share on other sites

doox 15 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I guess we'll find out - he's got head coaching experience in the mid 2000's with the Bruins but I don't really remember him. He's been an assistant in the NHL as well, so hopefully he can command respect. Link to post Share on other sites
gruven 530 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 We will find out. Watched their practice yesterday and it was uptempo and fast. Focussed on the D getting the puck to the forwards much quicker. They had a team meeting before and a team Christmas party after and the players seem pretty upbeat. Find out tonight I guess.

doox 15 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 How is the practice complex? I may head out there to check it out in January. Link to post Share on other sites
gruven 530 Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 They practiced at Consol yesterday because the team Christmas party/family skate was after. But the Lemieux Complex is really great. They let fans in to watch practice on most days, and there is a full Pens Gear store there as well. Really nice. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

doox 15 Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Surely, the Pens have to cover some of Scuderi's contract, right? I don't know why chicago would agree to a straight-up trade. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Yeah, they covered a third. Makes sense. Daley is usually decent, though he's having a rough year. He's certainly better than Scuderi. Link to post Share on other sites

Zach6668 513 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 AHL is 100% not allowed Yes, that's what my post said, but I could have used better English. AHL would likely be the best place for his development, but it's against the rules because the CHL thinks it should be able to keep its best, not ready for NHL players.

doox 15 Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 isn't Junior the right place for him now though ? At this point, maybe. I would have been happier if they hadn't burned a year of his contract and had not horribly misplayed him up until this point. I had a suspicion that they were going to misuse him, and I hope it doesn't hinder his development too much. Link to post Share on other sites

I'm glad to see the back of my head (my best quality, I've been told) is still in your profile pic...or avatar...or whatever it's called. When you heading back to Pgh?

Zach6668 513 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Good question. No plans yet. I am going to see the Pens play on Sunday though. They just so happen to be in Winnipeg while I'm there visiting family. Hoping we see Matt Murray (fellow Thunder Bayer) get the start. Link to post Share on other sites
