Christopher Bailey

@therimjobreaper He was meant to look pathetic in this moment

the way he took off flying always struck me as so goofy looking but now it feels like it was all for the purpose of this looking even stupider when it finally happened

@frogger5461 I think they’ll trade Karlson and be able to keep him 😢 but I hope so

@CoulditBe_BailE There’s a chance this offseason Vegas can’t resign Anderson and him

I want Dorofeyev so bad

@ivantweetspucks Hurting without makar also that second powerplay Vegas scored on was a soft call

WTF Avs?! 🙄 They're in big trouble already. So tired of Vegas...

@McguirePetrov Player runs into the goalie no question. Goalie also flops. IMO if you call the goalie interference you have to call him for embellishment too.

For diving, right?

@merkfermatoe I have no dog in this fight. Objectively not a distinct kicking motion. Good goal.

Bro, it’s a kicking motion. Not criticizing, just so damn annoyed that the stupid refs didn’t see that it was a KICKING MOTION.

@jmarshfof I’m not convinced the pens will draft with pick 22 especially after dubas presser

This is one of the few outcomes I would not be pleased with

@Tundisai @spoiltkate_ @Nabimara_Paul Oi !

@CoulditBe_BailE @spoiltkate_ @Nabimara_Paul Cunt😅

You’re trapped in the last tv show you watched, where are you?

@Tundisai @spoiltkate_ @Nabimara_Paul Shit I’m literally watching this right this second

@spoiltkate_ @Nabimara_Paul For fucks sake man😅😅

@Flux_cc Either way it kind of forces them into making a decision so I like the idea of it. I hadn’t considered offer sheeting him. Not against it in this case.

@CoulditBe_BailE You're probably right, but if it becomes an option, I think you've got to try it.

I don't really ever think about using an offer sheet, because they are so rarely successful and cause bad blood, but with how they approach the business and the current cap space situation they are in, I'd actually look at an offer sheet or trade and sign for Pavel Dorofeyev in Vegas. Why? Vegas has almost no cap space this offseason (only 4.625 million), they would be very hard pressed to match if Dubas were to offer sheet Dorofeyev at say 5-7 million (those are this year's numbers for the compensation tier, it will be slightly higher this offseason), the tier that has you pay a 1st and 3rd as compensation. Heck, I'd even go up in to the next bracket of the tier and pay a 1st, 2nd and 3rd, that would still be worth it for him. That or just try to trade for his RFA rights straight up, we could take some salary back and offer them one of Rust or Rakell in a package, or just a futures package, whatever they wanted. Dorofeyev would be a direct upgrade and replacement to Rust and/or Rakell and make one or both of them expendable via trade.

@Cory_Tucek Dorofeyev, Robo uhh idk any more possibilities

Kyle Dubas making his pitch to “players in their mid to late 20’s” who are FA or have control, saying this is a great place to play. Auston Matthews comes to mind? Anyone else?

@MarkMaddenX Probably because he wants more term than 1 year

Answer that question: If the Penguins would “love” Malkin to return, why isn’t the deal done?

@ThePoniExpress @937theFan This is 100% not the type of player dubas literally just talked about in his press conference about acquiring.

Our Penguins analyst Tyler Kennedy says he would trade the Penguins 1st round pick and either Bill Zonnon/Will Horcoff for Pittsburgh native/NY Rangers center Vincent Trocheck. @937theFan Would you make that deal?

@TonyAndrock @InsideAHLHockey Just wait for your first nhl goal pal. We can’t wait

"That was probably one of the coolest moments of my entire life." - Bill Zonnon on his 1st career pro goal More coming for @InsideAHLHockey subscribers. #StayTuned

@kelsey_surmacz4 @Flux_cc Offer sheets are a great way to make enemies with other GMs too. Almost like a dirty business deal

I'm seeing a lot of "offer sheet" takes pertaining to the Penguins. It's very highly unlikely that Pittsburgh - or anyone, really - will offer sheet with the cap spiking. If Dubas wants an RFA, they'll get it done through the RFA sign/trade market. Not through an offer sheet.

@kelsey_surmacz4 Robo 🤞 if not Bourque. Dorofeyev 🙏

Kyle Dubas said that Pittsburgh is a destination talented young players in their mid- to late-20s should want to go if they have "some control over their situation." #LetsGoPens

@MattGajtka @Sag_Hex00 @letangcult Good stuff thanks Matt

@CoulditBe_BailE @Sag_Hex00 @letangcult It's not my data, but the original poster was saying he had more coming

These guys look incredible in the A and then get called up and look lost

@MattGajtka @Sag_Hex00 @letangcult That’s a great point. I’d like to see this graph in terms of junior leagues

@CoulditBe_BailE @Sag_Hex00 @letangcult Another couple of expansion teams (which are almost certainly coming) would drop the level a little more, I would imagine

@MattGajtka @Sag_Hex00 @letangcult I’m pretty interested in your graph in terms of the other leagues though

@MattGajtka @Sag_Hex00 @letangcult That i definitely agree with. Not sure how it really could go up significantly though as top AHL players will get called up to their NHL teams. I think it’s more important that it hasn’t dropped significantly. That would show a drop in quality of players.
