Description

Some small change of scenery type trades that I think could help the Penguins really get over the top as it improves the bottom 6. I also moved Ty Smith up the the NHL over Ryan Shea as I feel like this is something that should've already happened. Not sure TBL would do that trade, but I think Vancouver would considering POJ was a GMJR guy and they do need defensive help.

Smith didn’t make the team for a reason. Yes, he’s better offensively than Shea, but Smith can be a complete liability defensively. Shea has been pretty solid defensively and he has solid mobility. With that great top 4 that features two offensive greats, the third pair just needs guys that won’t hurt us defensively. Keep Shea.

Also, there’s no chance TB does that trade. While I still think Nylander holds some value, relatively speaking, he did clear waivers. Eyssimont plays a role for them well.
