Hi All! I was a long time reader on HB, but could never comment because I could not get the login to work!
Glad I found this site and everyone here (via a new post to an old blog on HB) and that I will be able to participate in the dicsussions!Welcome aboard!
Yeah this site is clunky. I also feel like we don’t always see RWs blogs on time. Either or, glad we can chat still.
That being said – why tf did we not trade for Isaac Howard???
Who says we didn’t try to? Maybe he didn’t want to sign on a rebuilding team. Playing with McD and Drai after they were in the finals b2b sounds better than playing with Sid and Geno who missed the playoffs for 3 straight years.
Trying to comment on the latest blog but it keeps asking me to sign in after already signing in. Anyone figure out how to get past that?
I would love Ehlers for the same reason, to shake at TDL and get more draft capital. He’s not going to sign for only 1 season, though. Ehlers, or no Ehlers, this team probably isn’t going to be in the bottom 5 of league standings, this upcoming season IMO.
They would have been bottom 5 this year if it wasn’t for JArry’s late season heater.
I don’t think they should sign anyone else. They should try to keep a roster spot or two to allow the AHL guys an avenue to get some experience and go back down for more AHL games if needed. If they keep signing guys, they’ll all be stuck in the AHL again. Not saying they need to be with the big club all season, but I’d prefer to give them flavors of the show and send them back if they aren’t ready.
Pens need to be sinking near the bottom of the standings so definitely don’t go after Ehlers lol hopefully they ship out EK and one of Rust/Rakell for more assets. Hell they should ship out both Rust and Rakell but who knows if they’d do that.

Tomasino-Geno-Koivenen
Heinen-Novak-Hayes
Brazeau-Lizotte-Dewar/AcciariTank.
Good for Ned and us. Really want to see the Acciari trade to wherever. Then I want to see a Rakell trade and EK trade at some point this summer.
Did we actually sign Mantha?
The rumor came from Pagnotta, he’s a worse source than Serivelli who somehow has credibility these days.
Good day! I’m From HB 2008 when Brian Metzer used to post. Nice to see everyone is back.
I’m assuming everyone thinks we will be pretty quiet today? After the dust has settle, then I can see us trading a veteran.
I wouldn’t be surprised if we sign a guy or two for 1 year deals to trade at the deadline again even though I’d prefer not to and play the kids.
By the way, I’ve tried to send DM’s to multiple regulars on the HB board. I think EK has cut off my ability to DM people. I got through to superhenderson. Sent ones to MacPatty and Tojo. Was trying to send more to Grinder, Kid and Rolo and I started getting error messages about those people didn’t exist. Oh well.
were they banned too?
Don’t think so — I just sent them all message like 10 minutes ago.
