A Kessel is back with the Penguins organization and has a pretty important title, to boot! Patrick and Hunter discuss the slew of front-office moves the Penguins announced on Monday, including promoting women's hockey legend Amanda Kessel to Assistant General Manager of the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins. After that, they talk about how ESPN sees the Penguins players' 2024-25 campaigns going in their yearly point projections. Finally, they wrap up the show with a story you may have missed - The Athletic's Front Office Confidence Survey showed that Penguins fans...well, they aren't happy.

Congrats to Amanda, that's a pretty big promotion. But honestly Crosby not signing an extension yet is starting to feel slightly concerning. Like, what is even the hold up, give him whatever he's asking lol. It's concerning not because I think he'd play for another team, but because it has me thinking that maybe he's unsure how long he wants to keep playing.

I was listening to Chris Johnston last week and he thinks he may just sign it when he goes back to Pittsburgh in late August. He thinks this reminds him of the Matthews extension from last year so we’ll see.

Why would you pay attention to ANYTHING ESPN says? They are ABSOLUTELY the WORST!!!

TML fans are always salty 😂 they just cant let go. I think Dubas is doing fine for the mess he was given, he's following through with his plan. As far as players not performing up to their contracts thats on the players not Dubas

Dubas is doing an ok job. I also love the 2 drafts under his regime and i think they will only get better with wes clark. Free agency signings last year didnt go well other then eller. All the blame cant go on dubas though. At the end of the day, the player has to perform. This year free agency tbd. Lizotte signing was best imo. But i thought the best last season was acciari. His hits were down and injuries crept up on him. I think he's better on the wing then at center. He can use his forechecking and hitting more consistently on the wing.

I agree and think that people have been a little too harsh on Dubas, but I think a lot of those people are salty Leafs fans. I don't think he's done great in Pittsburgh, but not bad either. He inherited a real mess from Hextall. I do think acquiring draft picks has been a good move because you're acquiring assets, and the team has to get younger in general. The one thing I wish he had done this summer is acquire a winger who has proven to score 50-60 points a year, who could've stuck with Crosby. Wouldn't have to be an all-star, just someone who is proven to be good. Who knows, maybe he somehow acquires Nick Robertson. I think the Nedeljkovic signing was good because I don't think he was ready to plug any of the goalies from the minors up to the NHL yet. And it also may have signaled there lack of confidence in Jarry.

I honestly think DOC is going to have his best season yet, and he’s going to finish with 23 goals and 35 assists for 58 points.

@willie9397 Ай бұрын

I figured around .62 to .65 ppg around 52-56 points in 82 games 25-27 goals

@TonyP-ft1tu Ай бұрын

@@willie9397 I like it! I’ve looked doc since day 1 and always knew his potential. I just hope he gets more time on the top two lines. I could see him on Genos line with Bunting. I think they’d be a great line.

@1pbdecoded1pb Ай бұрын

Dubas = D. No Sidney Crosby contract. There is no reason not to have the contract done.

@larslan1975 Ай бұрын

I think they were finally clicking after the moves made last summer towards the end of the season,don’t be surprised if they finish 3rd behind Rangers and Devils,with Canes falling into 4th!

@fenderbass57 Ай бұрын

The Karlsson deal wasn’t great. He still doesn’t fit this team. The only good thing that came about was the removal of the deadwood that he got rid of in the trade.

@pcvetic Ай бұрын

Only real bad thing is the difficulty in moving his deal, if/when they decide to do so. But hopefully his 2nd year will be an improvement... Not expecting a 100pt season but would be nice if he can up it a bit.
