the Penguins worst defenseman is Mike Sullivan
Honestly think that Ryan Graves has to be the so-called "Offensive defenseman" of a pairing, and St. Ivany would allow him to be that versus playing with Letang or Karlsson and having to assume the "Defensive defenseman" role. Simple role reversal might pay dividends for him being able to have more freedom to his game.
You’re right, I think Dubas mistake in his signing of Graves was overlooking his puck moving abiiity, he plays best with the puck on his stick
I definitely agree with that take. The only issue is then we have a major contract playing 3LD and still need to find a 2LD
The difficulty in trading Graves might be equivalent to trading Ruuta, Grandlund and most of Petry’s Cap for EK
I wish we had the chance to see Ludvig and st-ivany together. We need those types of defense. Ludvig a stay at home defense who isnt afraid of blocking shots, hits and drop the gloves.
Hope and maybe. You know, maybe someday I too could be the GM of the Pens! I can always hope.
I think we need to give Graves the benefit of the doubt and give him the summer to figure things out mentally, it would be hard to play as bad as he did the year, I think he could benefit by playing with a defensive minded partner. They need to allow him to be what he is, a big body puck moving defenseman, the only ugly thing about that is paying 4.5m for 12 minutes of ice team, but if it wins games and works it works
The coaching staff needs to change, and they need at least one solid defensive defenseman.
They have one top defensive defenseman? Marcus Pettersson???
Entire coaching staff needs to go. Long overdue
All I hear are crickets. Right now, looks like status quo to me. We'll see "IF" Dubas has what it takes or not this summer! The jury is definitely still out.
St Ivany helps any pairing but he may have way more game than the narrow role he is likely to get. Don’t waste his youth.
Agree however, unless he switches to the left side, he's the no.3 RD. Only so many minutes to go around.
@@chickenalaking1319 Of course, just saying he should not always be the D guarding the net while other D joins the attack.
they wont change a thing, coaches , players, strategy, etc
Defense needs to change! Please!!!!!!!!
Joseph isn’t a top d man. Would b a mistake to give him that rule.
I’ve had hopes for him- he’s a great skater, but yeah , another “not ready for prime time” season
@@Topshelf87 I think maybe if u had him as a 3rd pairing or with someone who plays defense unlike letang or ek he might b trustworthy but I don’t thing he’s the answer for the pens. Graves I wonder if they could move back to nj cause ironically his old partner John Marino had a bad year too.
@@thesuneversets I agree, and damnit- I thought Marino was going to get better.
do the pens re-sign POJ? I would be surprised if they dont move on from him. but unless a team like AZ/Utah needs to get to the cap floor, does the graves contract get moved? graves has a 12 team no trade clause so thats also a challenge. but POJ-Letang, Pettersson/EK, ST Ivany/Ludvig/Shea again? Does it matter who your goalie is then? In an ideal world, no POJ and no Graves. But i dont think graves goes anywhere.
My opinion is that the Pens just arent physical enough to play good D pretty much across the board, and that includes players like the Dragon who just isnt strong enough and who isnt fast enough to avoid being taken out of plays. I think he is very overrated. That is why when they get into the playoffs they cant get past the 1st round because the playoffs feature lots more hitting and agression..The Pens just want to make pretty plays..this has been a problem for a very long time now
If anyhting Pettersson is very underrated
Don’t forget how bad Marcus Patterson was his first few seasons, he’s great now but he sucked for a long time until 22-23, Joesph could be in a similar boat, defenseman take longer to develop, he has his moments good and bad, I think he needs to work on his lower body strength and build confidence under a new assistant coaching staff
Team will never get better unless ek leaves should I bring up the garbage he's done?
they just need someone better on the left side to compensate for his liabilities. we could always use him at his best.
@surbloh that's long gone. These guys defend garbagesson and trash can jarry. Karlsson is to old time to get younger
Who do you suggest they go and get?
Well at least we all know that you know nothing about hockey , take up ping pong .
@@theretiringbarber awww your mad cause I know the goals karlsson gave up want Me to remind you?
