penguins get lapierre

idk about u but i thought we were getting rid of some of the cap space, now theyre just giving it away ngl i was expecting more in return imo

idk about u but we needed wingers man and lapierre puts up points imo don't hate on jimmy till january ngl still have faith in this offseason tbh

dont hate on jimmy till january lol ngl he's got a rep for being a rental tho man still thinking they could've gotten more out of those draft picks tbh

@Penguins17: think we get too caught up in draft picks man lapierre can put up points, that's what matters ngl

im gonna be honest man, lapierre putting up points is great and all but he's also a 30 year old rental ngl we gotta think about the future

@PenguinsDiehard and i were just talking about this, idk how much we really need to stress about lapierre being a rental tbh we get like 2-3 months out of these guys man.

man i think you're right, we get so caught up in immediate needs but we gotta think about when lapierre leaves and who's gonna step up then honestly raymond is the only guy i trust with the puck right now man @PenguinsDiehard what are your thoughts on that?

yeah i see what youre saying man, cant have lapierre out there just because he can put up points when nobody else steps up honestly feels like we got robbed of a first rounder tho

@Penguins17: yeah i feel u about getting robbed of that first rounder but we were pretty stacked already tbh ngl

i feel u about getting robbed of that first rounder but it's still a risk we took with lapierre and i think you gotta give krsnow some credit for thinking outside the box and trying to make a playoff push @section7pit

i think krsnow is trying to make a playoff push all right, just dont know if it's worth losing that first rounder man honestly feels like we're mortgaging the future for a slim chance at the playoffs this yr

ngl i feel like krsnow's trying something here and it's hard to blame him for going all in on the season tbh

i feel like krsnow's trying something here and it's hard to blame him for going all in on the season tbh man, maybe we get lucky and lapierre makes a huge difference or somethin

@ryan_penguins: idk man, lapierre's a high-risk signing and i gotta think it's gonna take a LOT for him to pay off that first rounder getting traded away

idk man, lapierre's a high-risk signing but it takes one guy to change the whole season like we saw with bunting last yr

@Penguins17 dont get me wrong, bunting was a huge pickup and we all know how that turned out but lapierre's not even close to being on that level imo

@section7pit i dont think lapierre is on bunting's level either but we cant just dismiss him outright tbh what if he actually pans out?

ngl i think thats exactly what people are doing, dismissing him before he even steps on the ice man @ryan_penguins

i think people are being pretty fair tbh @PenguinsDiehard we dont know jack about him yet so lets reserve judgment for now and see how hes looks in training camp man

@Penguins17: yea that's fair, we've been burned by too many "meh" signings to get hyped about lapierre tbh @ryan_penguins

yup cant blame people for being skeptical after all those meh signings lately man maybe we need a few more years of drafting well first @ryan_penguins is trying to be optimistic though
