Description

As always, this is where talks may begin, who knows what these GMs will take for sure. Adjust the deal as needed instead of just trolling, please.

Lines if Jake can come back in round two.

Trades

PIT

2020 2nd round pick (BUF)

Additional Details:

Literally could be any team that has the cap to take Galchenyuk and Simon, possibly even contenders.

BUF

Galchenyuk, Alex
Simon, Dominik
2020 6th round pick (PIT)

PIT

Toffoli, Tyler

LAK

2020 2nd round pick (BUF)
2021 5th round pick (PIT)

PIT

NJD

Bjugstad, Nick
Miletic, Sam
Riikola, Juuso
2020 1st round pick (PIT)

Additional Details:

This may need adjusted. I feel like Vatanen would fit the Pens scheme very well as a puck mover and could take Schultz's place if he can't get healthy on PP units.

Devils get a 3C for another year, maybe they swing him for a deal for picks this offseason or next deadline, a solid young Dman, a good prospect, and a first. Maybe Hallander needs to go instead of Miletic. Maybe add on another later round pick.

overpay.
I do like the idea of getting Palmieri. But he's kind of like Ott players at this point. Someone has to score and get a few points.
