Description

If the Pens would have done the “rumored” Jake McCabe trade, last year at the trade deadline, for D.Kahun; Instead of getting Sheary and Rodrigues.

But I guess the Pens wanted the forwards. JJ and Shultz fuc*ked the team up, coming and going!!

And then the Pens could have traded the Florida Panthers for someone like A.Wennberg and C.Sceviour for P.Hornqvist and I added a 3rd round pick.

Or trade Hornqvist to another team(a contender) for an upgrade at the 3C. Someone like Calgary and Sam Bennet for Hornqvist. Or Vegas and C.Stephenson. We wouldn’t have need Mathewson though, another LHD.

Use the cap space to sign Rodrigues if we wanted him on our 3rd line RW. Or sign someone like A. Duclair for the 3rd line RW.

Thats what the couple articles I read said Bud. I just didn’t pull it out of no where. It was D.Kuhn for McCabe. Or D.Kahun for Rodrigues and Sheary. And the Pens had JJ and Shultz at that time. So they took the forwards.

Debate the trade all you want, I don't get how Wennberg makes this team better.

Ok just saying its a moot point because that wasn't realistically on the table.

Just saying. The pens wouldn’t have traded Horngvist for Matheson if they took McCabe last year, instead of Sheary and Rodrigues; which both were rumored to be offered. It’s explained more in the description.
