Description
________________________________________________________________________________________

MY GOD THIS TEAM WOULD BE HARD AS NAILS [This is my DREAM Scenario] - (If Pens don't go all the way this yr)

~ Get the next Great NHL Winger in Draft in Lafreniere & drop him into NHL w/ Geno & Rakell as linemates

~ Get my RWer or [my Kessel Replacement] in Rakell & hope his game turns around.

~ Get a great 2-way, mid 20's, great face-off guy - 3rd line Center in Tierney

~ Even tho traded Murr's, still got an underrated 1B Type younger Goalie still w/ very good Upside in Ullmark
_______________________________________________________________________________________
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

LHD- J. Johnson #3 is The Compliance & Complete - Special Buyout for the 20'-21' Season
* All NHL Teams get a [1] time buyout bc of Virus & with Cap NOT going up to the thought to be est of $85-$87m Cap Ceiling.

ROSTER BREAK-DOWN : [Lines & Pairings]

FORWARDS :
- Line 1A ----- 59 ~ 87 ~ 16 ----- I wanted Rakell w/ Sid but this line will work for me, lol
- Line 1B ----- 11 ~ 71 ~ 67 ----- This could be just Scary AF - wow
- Line 3A ----- 19 ~ 50 ~ 17 ----- Best & most versatile 3rd line in NHL
- Line 3B ----- 13 ~ 53 ~ 72 ----- Holy 4th line - Yah, I kno Horny isn't a 4th liner but he prob wouldn't even care.

- [2] - H/S ----- 9 / 37 ----- E-Rod & Lafferty are 2 perfect back-ups that can both play all 3 positions

~ Breakdown - To have [7] Wingers that can all play in the Top 6 is just insane & could move these lines all over & different ways.


DEFENSE :
- #1 Pair ----- 8 ~ 58 ----- One of the best Top Pairings in the NHL
- #2 Pair ----- 29 ~ 6 ----- McCabe would be a perfect guy to pair w/ Johny Hockey
- #3 Pair ----- 28 ~ 5 ----- Ceci mite be better out of Canada (I'd take a chance) & Pettersson just keeps getting better

- [1] - H/S ---- 2 ----- Ruhwedel is the best #7 Dman in NHL - Also have LHD-man P.O.J. coming


GOALIES :
- 1A ---- 35 ---- Jarry is ready to take over
- 1B ---- 32 ---- Ullmark is a fav of mine - very underrated IMO

[#1 Overall Pick]
~ LW- Alexis Lafreniere

PIT Gets:
- The #1 Pick to be mentored by Sid also from Rimouski & also a #1 Pick - [It's meant to be]
- Petuzzelli a falling Goalie prospect but I still like him & a 3rd Rdr next year.

  2. 2020 1st round pick (PIT)
Additional Details:
[#8 - #10 Overall Pick]

DET Gets:
- A franchise Goalie still only 25 yrs old & already a 2- Time Cup winning Goalie.
And still get a Top 10 Pick
3.
PIT
  1. McCabe, Jake ($1,425,000 retained)
  2. Ullmark, Linus [RFA Rights]
Additional Details:
~ G- L. ULLMARK is a very Underrated Goalie IMO & would be a near perfect [cheaper & getting better each yr] 1B to 1A G- Jarry.
+ BUF: Signs Holtby & has Ukko-Pekka coming.
~ McCABE - a very good D-man who's been stuck on a bad team for too long.
* BUF fans give away McCabe for a 3rd to a 6th Rd Pick in every Armchair team.
BUF
  1. Aston-Reese, Zach
  2. Miletic, Sam [RFA Rights]
  3. Riikola, Juuso [RFA Rights]
Additional Details:
- ZAR - a great bottom 6 Forward & prob the best Defensive forward in NHL.
- Riikola - a good 3rd pairing Dman that never got a fair chance in PIT.
- Miletic was brought to PIT by GMJB & after another good AHL yr, should start to get NHL time.
4.
PIT
  1. Rakell, Rickard
  2. Stolarz, Anthony
  3. 2020 6th round pick (ANA)
Additional Details:
~ RAKELL is / has been a fav player of mine & after 2 - average seasons in ANA, this gives #67 a chance to get back to a 30+ G & 70 Point mark playing w/ 87 or 71.
+ ANA has so many young forwards that should be ready to take that next step in - Steel, Terry, Lundstrom, Comtois, & Jones. Also have Zegras coming [wow, they are loaded]
~ Stolarz is a very good #3 Goalie.
ANA
  1. Bjugstad, Nick
  2. DeSmith, Casey
  3. Légaré, Nathan
  4. 2020 4th round pick (PIT)
  5. 2021 2nd round pick (PIT)
Additional Details:
- BJUGSTAD - Is still a good player (but had core injury) & could be a steal as a #2 - #3 Center or a Top 6 RWer.
- DeSMITH - would be a cheap / reliable back-up to Whitehall John (is still good even tho stuck in AHL).
- LEGARE - Pens 2nd best prospect (kills me to move him) & [2] Draft picks - 21' - 2nd Rdr & 20' - 4th Rdr
5.
PIT
  1. Tierney, Chris [RFA Rights]
Additional Details:
~ TIERNEY - the Nick Bonnino Trade 2.0?
In mid 20's, a great bottom 6 type 2- way Center & good face-off guy that is a 3rd line Center but playing 2nd line Center minutes bc on a bad team.
OTT
  1. Almari, Niclas
  2. Simon, Dominik [RFA Rights]
Additional Details:
- SIMON - a very good 2- way Top 9 Forward that can play all [3] positions, who's skill set is underrated. I'd bet he blows up up in OTT getting more playing time.
- ALMARI - a good LHD-man prospect that will prob be a bottom pairing guy.

Why would Detroit trade down 8 SPOTS for Murray?

If Murray is worth a 1st, and a 1st moves you 2 spots then Murray would get you to like 6th OA.

More of a hope w/ Cap prob staying put but it prob depends on what McCann & Jarry do in playoffs on what they get.
