Description

*my initial thought is that OTT would not want to move on from DeBrincat as they just acquired him and paid a hefty price… while pettersson and Rakell have great value as they have good contracts, they are older than the OTT players and I think PIT would have to give up another mid-high level asset such as a 2nd, Poulin, Blomqvist, or one of POJ/SMITH

My purpose with this post was just to see what the team would like if they tried to fit in 2 more big contracts

@csick ngl it’s hard to do anything else if pit brings in that much $ it would be less big moves and more around the fringe, low cost, bounce back moves…

I can't see why the Canucks would consider that.

I don't think you watch the nhl if you think husso contract is bad. Wings pass all day and it will take #14 with nothing coming back to get rid of petry

that gets you either cat or Chabot, not both and OTT is most likely not trading Chabot
