Haha.. that funny... Eskimo im open to hearing your thoughts on the 3rd and mangipane for dzingel... Take it or hold out and hope for a hot start

Other possible option is Carl Grundstrom and a 4th (atleast he's got shots and hits) for Dzingel

I would rather just keep Dzingel and hope for some magic. Mangiapane and the third are really just magic beans (unless you could trade the third away for something better later, which I doubt).

I have just noticed that Nino starts hot on a team then slowly slips back into mediocrity ... Would you recommend me holding Dzingel and hoping he takes another step... or taking the 3rd and Mangipane (we have a 100gms played farm team so hes at 54 before i have to bring him up )

I would probably keep Dzingel

I'm sure you've already mentioned, but I'm assuming you are a big Pens fan? How far back do you remember watching the Pens? You old enough to remember Mario Lemieux, Jaromir Jagr, Kevin Stevens and those great Pens teams from the '80-90s? What's your favourite hockey fan memory of the team?

5 years from now, is Donald Trump more likely to be president or indicted on something?

And who will be the Democrat challenger in 2020??? (And who SHOULD it be?)

Seeing as you will be receiving the cup for 24 hours, what are some of your plans with it? Doing the common baby squat, eating cereal or spaghetti out of it, or just holding it over your head for hours at a time until your arms fall off.

Perhaps hit Vegas. I hear Ovie is still there.

Guentzel/Hintz/Jimmy Schuldt for Laine? Do I bite the bullet and trade for Laine?

I was born in 88, so I do remember the Penguins from the mid-90s onward. I was too young to remember those first Cups obviously, but I grew up watching Lemieux, Jagr, Kovalev, Nedved, Straka, etc. Still wish to this day they would’ve kept Zubov ...

Some classic games I attended: the 2008 Cup Final game 5 or 6 (whatever) when the Red Wings won the Cup; Crosby’s first home game; Crosby’s return from concussion; Crosby backhand shootout bottle pop against Price; Mario’s return to the NHL after retirement against Toronto; and I was at the 5 OT game where Primeau devastated the Penguins to end one of the longest tilts ever.

I’ve never seen the building crazier than when Crosby scored off the rush coming back from the concussions.

In the words of Cardi B, “vote for daddy bernie bitch.”

Capitalism is basically designed so that wealthy folks get away with committing crimes all day long, so I wouldn’t hold out hope that our rapist, White nationalist, senile bigot president will ever be indicted on anything from rape to pedophilia to fraud to emoluments violations, etc. the list goes on and on.

I’m pretty comfortable saying at this point if you support trump you’re a bad person. Period.

I heard there was an NHL player who let his girlfriend pee in the Cup and then drank it, so maybe I’ll try that ...

I think if I’m competing I would stick with Guentzel because he’s as close to a sure thing as you’re gonna find in terms of strong multi-cat goal scorers. I’d do this deal if I was rebuilding but otherwise I’m sticking with 40-goal Jake.

Just an Update for MounD and Eskimo

I moved Dzingel and my 4th for Trevor Moore and 2/3rds ... I feel Moore could be a sneaky prospect as Babcock loves him and he dosn't have much competition on that left side (and i will be able to keep him on the farm for almost the whole season) plus i get a 3rd and my 4th upgraded.
