Pittsburgh Penguins general manager Kyle Dubas has been having a bad week and it mostly centers around the drama with his goaltender, Tristan Jarry.

Just last year, the Penguins gave Tristan Jarry a five-year deal that many felt like was a good idea at the time. However, it has proven to actually be a bit of a disaster for the team. Jarry has been downright awful and as a result, they had to send him down to the American Hockey League in an attempt to get his confidence back.

Meanwhile, things are going even worse for Dubas and the Penguins as upon learning this new information, Dubas' grandmother decided to speak out.

'Cmon Pens, you got to get it together, time to realize time is moving on and so should the Penguins!!'

As one commenter wrote on Twitter, this does not bode well whatsoever for Dubas and the job he has been doing. In fact, he should probably be at least a little bit ashamed of the discourse that has followed suit here.

'Imagine being such a terrible GM that your own grandmother goes on Twitter to trash a 5-year contract that you signed only one year ago.'

Only time will tell whether or not the Penguins can finally get things together. With Sidney Crosby reaching the end of his career, there is a lot of pressure to mak the playoffs and get this show on the road. For now, however, things haven't been going as smoothly as planned.
