why would the pens need eichel? plus, why would we give up our whole future for a center we don't need? if we have malkin and sid, along with blueger and carter, i think the pens are fine. plus we have no cap space to do this. if this trade were to happen, one of malkin or letang would have to go.

That looks like a Jim Rutherford trade. Both the Penguins and the Sabres decline.
