Tangradi traded to Winnipeg for 7th round pick

[penmyst]

for alot of people Tangradi is the beauty queen in high school that got ugly and fat. He was traded and is trying to make his mark, let him go!!!!

That beauty queen definitely scored more than Tangradi will.

Even now, when she's ugly and fat.

Just heard on TSN that Burmistrov is a healthy scratch for Winnipeg tonight. Apparently Tangradi is outplaying someone.

Claude Noel hates Alexander Burmistrov for some reason...I love that little guy, he shouldn't be marginalized...

Well, his ice time has dwindled fairly steadily from about 12 minutes to 5 more or less.

Talk about mismanaging talent. Just give him a real chance. Not a chance where he's worried that if he's not good his ice time will decrease. He needs more time to suck out loud, at least 25 mins a night to show his real potential. If only HCDB would've listened to me.

Crow will be served, but to whom?

Tangradi with his SECOND point of the year last night. Looks like we got fleeced in that trade.

[RxBandit66]

He still has two more points this season than Tainted Glass.

Which he should. But the difference, if Tangradi wasn't a bum, should be higher.

Can the Pens trade the Jets' 7th back for Burmistrov?

[Gaucho]

[pensfan1989]

You're assuming that he has a game to be found.

Yeah he was labeled as having a game similar to a young Todd Bertuzzi. Then we actually got to see him. No hands, no physicality, no speed, no hockey smarts, no edge, nothing.

1. He played 5 games with the Penguins this season. He contributed to more goals than Boychuk so far, fwiw.
2. The vast majority of his NHL games have come on the 4th line.
3. In the AHL, he's scored @ .35 goals per game.
4. He averaged as many hits per game on the 4th line last year as Adams and Cooke.
5. For WBS in the playoffs last year, he upped his game and improved his regular season scoring pace.

In the spirit of Draftnik, those are facts. No hands? No physicality? No hockey smarts? The facts tell a different story. My assessment is that he has no confidence. The fault for that surely lies at his feet as much as it does at the teams', but regardless, it was obvious he wasn't going to get a chance here. So good luck to him in Winnipeg.

This argument will be revisited in about 1 year when we check in on the season Tangradi is having with them, when he's finally turned 24, which is statistically when his type of player "finds their game." Crow will be served. But to whom?

Tangradi was waived today, so I'm guessing you.

[dodint]

haha, Tainted Glass? Was Tanner Glass the whipping boy before I got here? Was he Adams before Adams got the new deal?

Also, this is the best spite bump I've ever seen.

[Idoit40fans]

Glass was pretty hTed the first year of his deal...that wore off a bit through the second one.

[Tico Rick]

Also, this is the best spite bump I've ever seen.

Yes, indeed.

[PensFanInDC]

Pensfan1989 must be a woman with that kind of spiteful memory. Well played.

[MalkinIsMyHomeboy]

What's a "Tangradi"?

He played with the Penguins before you jumped on the bandwagon.

[Gaucho]

groan ...

[columbia]

With his speed, you'd think he'd be able to catch on in the KHL.

If I were him, I'd see if I could get traded to the Flyers/Phantoms and eek out an AHL career at home.
It beats most jobs.

[Eismann]

Also, this is the best spite bump I've ever seen.

Yeah, this is pretty dang impressive.
