Description
I don't have high hopes for POJ on the Pens. They seem really high on him but I think he only starts making
an impact after the Sid/Geno decline.

Trades
1.
PIT
  1. Matheson, Michael
Additional Details:
I read a lot of Panthers fans really unhappy about this guy and his massive deal. Change of scenary, Florida saves 3 years of his contract and 1.4 mil per season in cap.
FLA
  1. Johnson, Jack
Additional Details:
Florida gets a cheaper contract with less term.
Pens add a bit because Matheson is the superior player?
2.
PIT
  1. Kunin, Luke [RFA Rights]
MIN
  1. Murray, Matt [RFA Rights]
Additional Details:
Guerin looks for a goalie and calls his old friend Jim.
Pens probably send an extra pick or prospect as Kunin is a solid young player
3.
PIT
  1. Montour, Brandon [RFA Rights]
BUF
  1. Bjugstad, Nick ($1,100,000 retained)
  2. McCann, Jared [RFA Rights]
Additional Details:
Pens send a top 6 winger with some untapped potential and a 100% healthy Bjugstad (according to GMJR) with $1.1 in retention.

I think Pens add a pick here as well. Maybe a 2020 3rd or 2021 2nd

That Matheson trade isn't fair. Jack Johnson is the WORST player in the NHL. At least Matheson is useful in the bottom pairing

That's why I wrote pens add a little. But let's not act like Matheson's massive contract is movable. He's a 3rd pairing D who can slide into the top 4 when needed

POJ is a player you need then, especially with PIT’s prospect pool

I can give you my personal guarantee that Kunin will not be traded for Murray. That's not a good deal for the Wild.

I don't think he's ready for an NHL role yet. After reading what a lot of analysts have said, he needs more experience and can't be rushed
