Pittsburgh Penguins GM Kyle Dubas' Recent Comments Hint At Him Potentially Shopping Aging Stars Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, and/or Kris Letang
Kyle Dubas isn't afraid to make bold moves, and his recent comments suggest he may make unfathomable decisions.
Dubas Hints at Major Trades Incoming in Pittsburgh?
The Penguins are 7th in the Metro, and have a steep hill to climb to get into even the Wild Card conversation. This has made many believe a major shift will occur.
A recent comment made by GM Dubas sparked controversy among the fanbase.
Check out what he said:
"I have my expectations of the group now, and I have my responsibility in the long run when it comes to how we're going to dictate our course. I'm going to give the players and the coaching staff as much time as possible," Dubas said. "So I'm just by nature not going to make any decisions based on how we do this week or next week. When we get through the All-Star break, and on the other side of that, we'll have a better idea of what we are as a group and where we need to go. Do we need some help, or do we need to have a deeper discussion about where we're at as a club?"
With the Penguins only getting further away from the playoff picture, will former Leafs GM Dubas make the move he vowed never to make?
