2. From what I hear from talk show they say Sid money is there but the hold up is how much more years he wants to play

3. The Red Wings really need to get Raymond signed ASAP -he's a key piece of their future. Mercer is another player that needs to be signed ASAP by the Devils, they need to have him in their lineup. Wowsa is my reaction to Swayman wanting $ 10 Mil–personally,if I;m the Boston GM, I find a way to get it done. Some agents make things really difficult for GMs ,but, supposedly, they have their clients' best interest at the heart of the bargaining.Thanks for another excellent report, I am so ready for training camps to start.

4. Ridiculous take on the Penguins situation lol.

   Only POSSIBLE guy youd want to move of the big 3 would be Geno.

   Weve seen how long elite defenseman can play. And really just defenseman in general.

   Letang is boised to become the captain if Sid only has 2 more years left.

   You don't move Sid or Letang. That is asinine. And you dont ever get real value back trading guys of this calibre.

   Malkin, I could see. Hes no longer causing turnovers. He refused to go battle along the boards.

   He wants his linemates to do all the grinding while he sets up to score a goal.

   Letang had a serious injury he was playing through last year, which was fixed with Surgery.

   Letang is still a top 5 to 7 D man in this league. He just keeps getting better with age.

   Crosby is waiting til he gets back in town fully to get ready for the season. They'll do a big press conference and get fans excited for the season.

   Sid is relaxing and decompressing from the season as he always does.

   Already been reported that they agree on the price of the contract. Now its down to Sid, how many years he wants to keep playing.

   Also, he already said he wants to be a Penguin for life. As a commenter stated above. He wants to get the years right. Doesnt want to retire from the Pens while under contract & force them to carry dead cap.

   Just calm down w the trade talk of the big 3.

   Sid also faught hard for genos contract. Hes not going to do G dirty like that. Or the city.

   Also, completely disagree on pens not challenging for a playoff spot.

   They are pretty significantly better. You got carter off the books.

   You got young guys who will be playing in the top 6.

   Pens will be finem

5. Swayman has no right to ask for $10 mill

6. Honestly I follow all the penguins actual news reports very closely and in that circle this is fake news and alot of what you see is low level sports news reports especially from OUTSIDE of the actual Penguins news agency's and is BS poke and hope reports to talk Crosby leaving Pittsburgh into existence because they either hate the Pittsburgh Penguins or want him to go to the teams they report on especially in the Canadian market where they can't stand seeing Sid play for a non Canadian team… Its fake news and it's trashy, pathetic, and desperate if you ask me.

7. I'd like to see Calgary 👀 go after the rfas in Detroit or New Jersey

8. mtl dont want letang stop talking about that

9. lol Leon is not signing back in Edmonton good luck with that

10. I like swayman great goalie but thats insane lol.

11. It’s all about how much the agent can get for himself, like Holloway

12. Pitt could trade their core 3 with 50% retained for at least 7 1st round picks. Hanging onto them out of loyalty and then missing the playoffs is moronic

13. Crosby to Boston
    Malkin to Detroit
    Letang to Toronto
    Karlsson to Chicago

14. The Malkin situation Malkin has already came out and said the rumours are not true and that he plans to play out his contract. And Sid was apart of hiring Dubas Crosby sought out Dubas and was apart of hiring him. So I don't believe Crosby would have wanted Dubas to get the job if this rumour was a serious outcome. Everything being said right now is purely just a rumour and a headline which drawns people in and should be treated as so until there is a actual statement from them saying otherwise

15. Crosby should just leave, and go to Colorado, Boston or Montreal. They all need him. Montreal does not need Letang.

16. Pens are done
