Description

Anaheim gets Pettersson back to replace Lindholm (who will probably be traded). Gets Kapanen, who will probably be pretty cheap and easy to re-sign.

Penguins get Rakell who might not be that good anymore but can potentially help the middle six and clears cap space for next season.

Pettersson isn't the guy I would chose to move (because Dumoulin is older and struggling) but he is the guy Sullivan is choosing to scratch in favor of Friedman.

This leaves the Penguins with room for a big move as well.

I actually kinda like it. Now that Ducks has made it clear they'll be retooling that core a bit I could see the sense behind bringing some new faces for the core they're building.

Well without Manson and Lindholm, they need competent NHL defensemen and he's exactly that.

you lost me at "Rakell who might not be good anymore". Wut r Wie doin hure, bud? Also Petterson replacing Lindholm? Really dude? Mad bias here.
Rakell to the Pens would be cool but its gonna be for future assets. Not in the mood to be swapping chairs and letting the pens off easy for their mistakes.
