I don't see M NTC Zucker waiving for Edmonton. Besides it's not a good deal for the Pens getting Kassian. Matheson probably has to too much long term cap for the Coyotes to like,

Yotes aren't really in any position to attract any decent UFA players. His term stinks, but he's shown to be a good dman. It's worth it for them.

I don't want Kassian, but it just seems like a Hetall move.

Zucker may waive if he thinks he has a shot playing along McD or Draisaitl.

That package for Bishop isn’t good enough for salary retention

To be honest I did, too, but the Pens are just in a tough financial position. I think POJ will be better.
