Ryan Shea news, rumors

  • • Are Dubas and the Penguins Stuck Between a Rock and a Hard Place?
    Three days into free agency, the Penguins’ roster resembles anything but a finished product. With the recent additions of Andrei Kuzmenko, Hendrix Lapierre and Nick Robertson, we have 19…count ‘em…19 forwards who played at least one game in the NHL last season. That’s enough for six forward lines, with one skater to spare. A logjam that would do a beaver proud. That doesn’t even include the likes ...2026
  • • Is the Penguins’ Defense Better?
    Last week, I posed the following question. Are the Penguins a better team following a fleury (er…flurry) of moves by Kyle Dubas? Today I thought I’d narrow my focus to our defense, which our POHO/GM significantly overhauled, and ask a similar question. Is our defense better? It sure is different. Four blueliners from last season’s bunch exited through trades or free agency, including two (Ryan She...2026

  • • Penguins Update: What Now?
    Now that the dust is settling on one of the most entertaining and rewarding, yet ultimately disappointing seasons in recent memory, all eyes are on Penguins POHO/GM Kyle Dubas. More specifically, how he plans to navigate the upcoming offseason. One rife with roster-altering decisions. Including the likes of Sebastian Aho who toiled exclusively in the minors, no fewer than 14 players currently unde...2026

  • • Caps Best Shorthanded Penguins, 6-3
    The Penguins entered Saturday’s nationally televised matinee matchup with the Capitals sans a burgeoning list of regulars. Much to ABC’s chagrin, Sidney Crosby, Connor Dewar, Erik Karlsson and Bryan Rust sat out due to lower-body ailments, while Ben Kindel, Kris Letang, Blake Lizotte, Evgeni Malkin and Parker Wotherspoon skipped the festivities with upper-body maladies. Remarkably, the team’s figh...2026

Ryan Shea injury and suspension

  • • Penguins Surprises: Who’da Thunk It?
    As the Grateful Dead sang in their 1970 classic, Truckin’, “what a long, strange trip it’s been.” Yes, I’m referring to the Penguins’ Cinderella season. Back when training camp assembled last September, who’da thunk (in no particular order): Anthony Mantha, coming off a season lost to ACL surgery at age 31, would register career highs in goals (31), assists (30) and points (61); Fello...2026
  • • Penguins Update: Girard Being Evaluated
    It sure didn’t take long for the recent Brett Kulak-to-the-Avs-for-Samuel Girard swap, which I wasn’t in favor of, to sprout warts. Apparently, the newcomer is being evaluated for a lower-body injury sustained during last night’s victory over the Devils. Girard logged 17:53 of ice time while skating next to Kris Letang in his Penguins debut. To his credit, he blocked a team-best four shots but als...2026
  • • Penguins Bedevil Jersey, 4-1
    In their first game following the extended Olympic break, the Penguins beat the Devils last night at PPG Paints Arena by a 4-1 count. Understandably, the Pens looked a bit rusty and disjointed out of the starting blocks, but still managed to grab the lead on a power-play goal by Tommy Novak on a redirect 69 seconds before the intermission. The Devils pushed back during a sloppy second period that ...2026
  • • Penguins St. Ivany to Miss Eight Weeks
    Penguins defenseman Jack St. Ivany is expected to miss eight weeks following surgery on his left hand. He’ll join veteran rearguard Ryan Graves on IR. Following a bit of a bumpy start highlighted by a tendency to turn the puck over, I thought the rangy 26-year-old Californian had settled in nicely on the third pairing next to Ryan Shea. His 5v5 goals for percentage (65%) is second-best on the team...2026

    • V̅DCCI On A Big Day
    I found this Stuart Skinner facial expression funny and appropriate today for a number of reasons. I'll get to the reason for the title in a second, but the biggest reason was because the man making the facial expression was traded in what was being described as a "blockbuster" trade by pundits hours before an actual blockbuster trade happened. Perhaps we should stop throwing around hyperbole? At ...2025
  • • Penguins Outgunned by CBJ in a Shootout, 5-4
    The Penguins lost to the Blue Jackets last night, 5-4, in a see-saw affair that was decided in a shootout. In the process, snapping our feel-good, four-game winning streak and sending the 15,261 PPG Paints Arena partisans home a tinge disappointed. The game actually commenced on a high note for the locals. Anthony Mantha slipped a pretty cross-ice pass to a trailing Ryan Shea and No. 5 did the res...2025

  • • Penguins Make Emergency Recalls
    In the wake of injuries to defenseman Ryan Shea (upper-body) and newly acquired forward Thomas Novak (lower-body), the Penguins have recalled a pair of veterans, forward Matt Nieto and defenseman Sebastian Aho (pictured), on an emergency basis. Shea is expected to be out week-to-week, while Novak is listed as day-to-day. Defenseman Pierre-Olivier Joseph (upper body) will be out longer term as well...2025

    The Penguins have summoned 24-year-old defenseman Jack St. Ivany from their Wilkes-Barre/Scranton farm club on an emergency recall, the team announced today. Ryan Shea, recalled on a similar basis on Thursday, was returned to the Baby Pens. A rangy 6’3” 198-pounder, St. Ivany was drafted in the fourth round by the Flyers back in 2018 when Ron Hextall was the GM in Philly. The Manhattan Beach, Cali...2024

    The Penguins have placed defenseman John Ludvig on long-term injured reserve today with an undisclosed injury. Although this is pure speculation, it’s possible the injury…upper-body in nature…occurred during the rookie’s game-opening scrap with Islanders heavyweight Matt Martin on Sunday night. Although Ludvig’s had his struggles (a team-worst minus-7), the 23-year-old hard rock brings a phy...2024

    Following unseasonably warm temps during the day, it was a chilly night in Chicago. A chili night, too. Let me explain.  Back in the day, local Wendy’s restaurants would give out free bowls of chili to patrons who produced ticket stubs when the Penguins scored seven or more goals. A fairly common occurrence back in the halcyon days of Mario Lemieux and Jaromir Jagr. The big guns last night, with a...2025

The goal-getters: Ryan Shea, his second of the season at 2:18 of the second period on a slap s...2025

  • • The Penguins Are Different. Are They Better?
    Two days into free agency and with nine signings under our belt, it’s time to take a step back and see what Kyle Dubas has wrought. The Penguins sure are different. Deeper, too, at least for the time being. Are they better? I do like the fact that we’re bigger. The additions of monster forwards Anthony Mantha and Justin Brazeau should make us more difficult to handle, particularly in the high-traf...2025

    Although it seems almost impossible given the perpetually sorry state of our defense this season (a minus-52 goal differential), have Kyle Dubas and the Penguins unearthed a couple of diamonds in the rough for our blue line corps? And, no, I’m not referring to Pierre-Olivier Joseph, reacquired in December, who piled up minuses at a staggering rate before recently going on IR. (Minus-15 in 24 games...2025

    I was pondering our Penguins the other day when a thought popped into my noggin. Namely, what will our lineup look like next season? So inspired, I began to parse our current roster to see who might stick around and who might go. I’ll start with the expected departures. Any or all of the following UFAs-to-be could be plying their respective trades for other teams next season. I’ll include pending ...2025

    The Penguins have re-signed defenseman Jack St. Ivany to a three-year deal with an AAV of $775K. A right-handed shot, the rangy 6’3” 201-pounder was slated to become an RFA when his current contract expired on July 1. Personally, I liked what I saw of St. Ivany. A lot. His 14-game stint with the black-and-gold coincided with the team’s 8-3-3 stretch run. Calm and cool, the 24-year-old rearguard di...2024

  • • Penguins Defense Not Built for Playoffs
    I was reading some recent comments from long-time PenguinPoop reader Mike about the state of our defense. He questions whether they’d be able to withstand the rigors of playoff hockey. To digress, Mike’s been involved in professional basketball at several levels, so he knows a thing or two about team sports. When he comments I tend to listen. Sometimes I’m inspired to write, too. So Mike, this one...2024

  • • The Penguins Are a Different Team Today. Are They Better?
    Wow. It’s sure been a whirlwind couple of days for our Penguins, hasn’t it? I’ll say this for Kyle Dubas. He definitely seems to have a plan and he sure ain’t afraid to roll the dice and make a move. Quite refreshing, and in stark contrast to former GM Ron Hextall. To put it in hockey parlance, Hextall tended to play on his heels. Dubas plays on his toes. We’ve added six new players over the past ...2023

  • • Penguins Finalize Roster
    The Penguins made several moves today to whittle their active roster down to the 23-man limit. In the process, becoming cap compliant.

There was some thought the Pens mi...2024

We were particularly dominant in the second period, piling up a whopping 35-10 edge in shot attempts, including an equally staggering 18-4 advantage in shots on goal.

    By now, we’re all pretty familiar with the patchwork nature of the Penguins’ defense. Especially since POHO/GM Kyle Dubas went shopping for blue-line help at Filene’s Basement over the summer.

However, the right side is an altogether different story, with four estab...2025
