What is discussed at the start of this section?
Oh, yeah. It's Pomp and Joe with Tyler Kennedy. Ron, would you like to turn on your mic?
I blew the whole opening.
Let's try it again. Take two. Bring back the music limits. We'll pretend it never happened. Oh, yeah. It's time for Pomp and Joe with Tyler. Tyler Kennedy. Kennedy. Kennedy. Beautiful, Bob. You nailed it. Tyler, how are you?
I'm doing good. Actually, I have a little bone to pick with Bob. I was watching you guys yesterday. You wouldn't trade a first rounder for Vincent Trocek?
No, I would prefer two seconds. Not only that, he'll rip the Penguins if they do that. No, I'm saying that only because I think they are not as – I think they're ahead of – I thought this year they'd be ahead. They show that their sort of hybrid rebuild is on path, maybe ahead, but it's not to the point where I don't think it's a Stanley Cup-ready team, so therefore I don't know if I'd do that. I would continue the path that they're doing. And if I can pluck some younger talent away from another team, somebody who may be on the outs, like a lot of teams do have – At this time of the year, they go with veterans and some younger guys are left off of a roster. They may be good enough to play. Artur Shilov fell into that category and so did Chinnikov.
They got both of them because they were being ousted, you know, not given the kind of time they needed.
Yeah, but I would think you'd have Vince for five years, right? Like he's a younger guy that the biggest problem the Penguins are having lately is they can't win a faceoff, right? They were like... They will when Crosby comes back.
I know, but if I thought that was going to be their biggest problem this year, I would have signed up for it in a second.
No, but penalty shots, right?
What trade strategies are being considered for the Penguins?
The shootout is another big one.
You know, and people put the emphasis on the goaltending there. It's not that. It is, but they don't score. They have like seven shootout goals in 33 attempts. They're fine where they are right now. Sid's coming back. I bet he'll come back right on time. You think so, Tyler?
Yeah, you see some of the videos of him skating already. He looks pretty good. I think he's like adding a superstar at the deadline. Your superstar is just sitting out because he's injured. When you get him back, talk about a jolt to the lineup. That's a pretty good play.
Well, that's where we're going to start today. I like you going after Bob early. Are you satisfied with his answer? And Limits also said the same thing. Why don't you dump and chase and hit him behind the boards? Dump and chase.
Even Noah, have you seen the podcast with Dubas? The Penguins do it with Dubas.
And Josh. Josh. Yeah, they do a good job of that.
Yeah, and it was great. And Dubas was talking about like they were getting a lot of calls when they were struggling just before Christmas and For Skinner and Kulak. He goes, yeah, we got a lot of calls for that goalie, which was Skinner. So there's a lot of teams maybe inquiring about Skinner. So he is a trade piece. He also said he's happy with the goaltending situation right now. Yeah. But I was very surprised that there was quite a few teams inquiring about Kulak.
their process with skinner maybe edmondson will reacquire him because they need help over there they take him over jari right now i can tell you that they're not even playing jari they got another guy in there but also skinner was playing really well back then now he did play good the other day would you trade him who skinner yeah i'd trade him in a heartbeat i just i'm pretty confident what would you expect back a second round pick
Yeah, okay, we got enough picks, no? We got like 400 picks in the first three rounds. Don't underestimate. Don't underestimate. Then what do you want back, or what could they get back? Pack it for other things. It depends where he goes.
A depth center type?
A depth center?
Yeah.
I think maybe another – I think we need one more real good defensive defenseman, like almost like an old Brian Dumoulin, like one of those kind of guys. Yeah. Chris Letang, Carlson have been playing –
