@Penguins de Pittsburgh

Une lutte de pouvoir se forme entre les dirigeants des Pingouins



Dans cet épisode, les Nick discutent de la « lutte de pouvoir » entre le président des opérations hockey des Penguins de Pittsburgh, Kyle Dubas, et l’entraîneur-chef Mike Sullivan, et de ce que cela pourrait signifier (1:16). Ils discutent également du manque grave de profondeur défensive organisationnelle des Penguins et de la raison pour laquelle cela pourrait conduire à l’arrivée de plus de joueurs vétérans à l’arrière (13:35). Nick et Nick clôturent l’épisode en parlant d’une poignée d’attaquants vétérans des Penguins ayant besoin d’un nouveau contrat et de la question de savoir si les Penguins devraient les ramener pour la saison 2024-25 (23:20).

  1. I don’t buy this stuff about a power struggle. Kypreos and Seravalli aren’t exactly known for being reliable sources. I’d imagine Dubas und Sully might disagree on a few personnel decisions but to call that a power struggle seems a bit harsh

  2. If sullivan actually had won a playoff series since 2018, then he should have a voice. but FSG just signed dubas to a 7 year deal. why would dubas sign if he has to yield to the head coach? there is no reason to run the existing coaching staff back. 2 years with a 1st round loss then 2 years without playoffs? in particular, the PP has declined for 3 consecutive years. i am not saying sullivan is a bad coach, he is a good coach. but everyone's message gets stale. ruff, laviolette, bowman, trotz, maurice, torts, etc have all changed jobs. Its just time. would be interesting to see if he also has a problem with fitzgerald when he gets to jersey.

  5. Although I think the report about the power struggle might be a little overblown, I could see there being a little bit of it because FSG went over Hextall's head to give Sully the 3 year extension. Also Sully was involved in initial stages of say in the Pens prospect system. Sully clearly has a lot of influence within the organization. I don't think its necessarily appropriate because Dubas is the one who's the President of Hockey Ops and GM, so it's his right to build the organization in the image he believes fit and Sully just has to deal with it, especially considering the results of the last couple of years.

  6. Out of the 4 plugs I think it’s between Hinostroza and Bemstrom. Kinda like Horwat and Nick mentioned.

    Hinostroza is fast and can hang with the big dogs. He couldn’t finish last year and had took some penalties but the eye test said he just wasn’t quite adjusted to the team. He’s also good at drawing penalties with his effort

    Bemstrom showed he can score more than the rest, might be good in shootouts but is a question mark the rest of the way. Saw him throw a few nice hits. Maybe he can get a lot better in training camp and running elbows with Hall of Famers might push him.

    work with Bemstrom and then scratch him for Hinostroza for a few games if needed.
