Description
Top 6 is good as is, but I think a power forward would do wonders for the 1st line. Crosby has always played best with a power forward. Bottom 6 would be extremely fast here. 3rd pair D would be able to protect the net way better and add some physicality to the D.

Blues pass. They're not retaining for you and then waiting 2-3 years for picks. They will hang onto Vrana for now, and probably move him at the deadline (or after he has a big hot scoring streak, one of the two).

I see what your saying for sure, but also the Pens 2026 2nd will be a lot higher than our 2024 2nd. Will probably be closer to a top 5 pick in that round.

Penguins fan opinion on these trades

1. Rust is better than crouse, but a Smith-Malkin-Crouse line is a deadly combination
2. Sure i like that trade for the Pens
3. Great trade for both sides a 3rd for the pens and a 1D for edmonton
4. NO, At least a 3rd
5. NO, that is to much for Vrana

Fair, what do you think of the value on Crouse trade? I just think Crosby always plays well with a power forward.

no chance AZ is trading crouse for a 2nd (they have a to already) i dont see AZ trading him for anything less than a top pair D under good deal under 27yo (which I know is a overpay, meaning AZ has no reason at all to deal him)
