Arrr! The penguins be bootin' their All-Star keeper, 18 moons into a treasure chest of doubloons! What folly!

Arrr, matey! The Pittsburgh Penguins be castin’ their two-time All Star keeper, Tristan Jarry, into the briny deep o' waivers, just a mere 18 moons into his grand five-year treasure map! Blame it on his wretched play, I say! Aye, the sea be full o' surprises!
Ahoy, me hearties! Gather 'round as I spin ye a yarn 'bout the Pittsburgh Penguins and their beleaguered goalie, Tristan Jarry. In the fair month of July 2023, they signed that scallywag to a grand five-year bounty of $28.875 million doubloons! But lo and behold, barely a year and a half later, they cast him adrift on waivers like an old barnacle-encrusted ship.This two-time All-Star has been flounderin' like a fish outta water, sportin' an 8-7-4 record with a dismal 3.32 goals against average. The poor lad's been caught napping, lettin’ the enemy score on their very first shot six times! Just the other day, in a 4-2 scuttle against the Seattle Kraken, he allowed a shorthanded goal faster than ye can say "Avast ye!"
Though he led the league last season with six shutouts, this season be a different tale, with nary a shutout in sight. The Penguins be in a bit of a pickle too, sittin' at 18-20-8, not in playoff waters, and trailin' the Columbus Blue Jackets for the last lifeboat to the Eastern Conference playoffs.
As they prepare to face the Buffalo Sabres, one wonders if Jarry shall find his sea legs again—or if he be destined for the American Hockey League's depths. Arrr, only time will tell!
