Description

Blueger is now officially expendable. With the emergence of O'Connor-Poehling-Heinen as a 4th line, there isn't any real reason why he should be on this team.

The same can be said for McGinn and Carter, but there is a less than 0.1% chance Carter gets moved

I'm being overly optimistic about the O'Reilly trade value wise, but the Pens need to address the bottom 6

The pens aren’t a bubble team? Lol
And Räty isn’t really an amazing prospect. He’s solid but not amazing.
