I know Jarry was/is supposed to be the goalie answer for the next 10 years - at least that was the plan.  But how does the organization have any faith in him moving forward.  Is he such damaged goods the pens have to go a different route in goal.
Zeise
12:41
Well Murray was the answer for ten years, too and that didn’t quite happen. The Pens have to get a goalie and they will. They can’t go into next season with their current sotiation

Is it me or does Malkin shine the brightest when Crosby is out? Maybe a shrink is all that Geno needs.
Zeise
12:42
You probably just notice him more that’s all

I met Ron Hextall several times back when he was a Hershey Bear in AHL.  I know it has been a long time, but he was a maniac and fierce competitor thru his long career  Jarry's play had to kill him.  No way Jarry comes back, right?
Zeise
12:43
Like I said, I can’t see that happening at all. Well let me say this - I think Jarry will be back, just not as the starter

Steelers and Penguins both won their divisions, Pirates were even in 1st place first week of season. Future looks bright Pirtsburgh fans.

Steelers have a QB running on fumes, core of the Pens are 30-somethings and the Pirates 🤦🏾‍♂️

Polanco is a five tool player. Pirates should get nothing less than Mike Trout for him.
Zeise
12:45
What are the five tools? Bad base running, bad angles on fly balls, horrific slider, swinging at pitches out of the strike zone and incapable of throwing anyone out since his arm injury?

Paul, thanks for the chats.  Do you see Mike Sullivan back behind the bench for the Pens next year?
Zeise
12:45
I do. But I could also see a scenario where a slow start and they move on from
him. That’s how it works in the NHL

Have to feel for jarry, letting team down has to be rough. What is the answer at goalie? Desmith? Don't see how Pens would get a free agent that could be really good.
Zeise
12:46
I have to see who is available but they are probably going to have to make a trade with some team. And frankly they could probably package DeSmith since his value is higher

No Aaron Donald. on Mt Rushmore?
Zeise
12:47
I thought about him and Fitz. But Green was the heart and soul of some great great Pitt teams. You can only pick four

Being 46 in 1986 is a older than a 50 in 2021...but I like your point about the deeper fields at present.
Zeise

Also this - the Ocean Course was the longest in PGA history. You don’t expect a 50 year old to win on that course

Paul - Is it true that Craig Meyer has one year left of eligibility and Robert Morris wants him to use it to be their 3 point threat?
Zeise
12:49
Craig is going to enter the transfer portal but I’m not sure Andy Toole needs a shooter. Someone will take Craig though and he will make a bunch of 3s!

There once was a goalie people thought sucked in the playoffs.  His name was Marc-Andre Fleury.  People don't forget, Tristen is still a young fellow with a lot of upside.
Zeise
12:49
I don’t think so. Fleury had a lot of success in the playoff before he blew up against the Flyers. There is a difference
We have more questions?

Why do you think Sully let Jarry flounder in the net and not give Lagace a chance?
Zeise
12:50
Because up to that point Legace hadn’t played, well had only played one game. For better or worse he had to ride Jarry
