Major tensions between Kyle Dubas and Jake Guentzel leak publicly
Jake Guentzel spent most of his adult life as a Pittsburgh Penguin before being traded at the deadline to the Carolina Hurricanes. Major new information has revealed there is animosity between him and general manager of the Penguins, Kyle Dubas.
Kyle Dubas, while the Pittsburgh Penguins did ultimately make a playoff push (that probably would've been successful with Guentzel), opted to move the member of the 2017 Stanley Cup team to the Carolina Hurricanes for a slew of prospects.
It appears now that the conditions in which Guentzel left were not the best.
Guentzel did not leave the Penguins on the best of terms. He was particularly agitated by a perceived lack of forthright communication from Dubas, a source close to Guentzel said.
However, Guentzel would not deny Dubas an opportunity to pitch him on a potential return to Pittsburgh if Guentzel tests free agency in July.
Guentzel's fondness for the Penguins supersedes any ill feelings toward Dubas, said a team source and a source close to Guentzel.
Still, Guentzel reuniting with the Penguins was described by one source as "a long shot" because "he's loving it in Carolina, and (the Hurricanes) feel the same."

It certainly appears that Jake Guentzel has found his new home with the Hurricanes, and has no intention of leaving Raleigh!
