Description
Is it an overpay? Probably, does it hinge on Marner and Crosby waiving? Yes. Does it look super cool, also yes! Would be super fun to see Guentzel and Crosby on the same team again for one last Hurrah!

Who know what a Crosby deal looks like, but I think this deal could work as it gives the Pens futures and Marner who would likely be a high TDL target for any contending team.

Missing the playoffs with Crosby in his last 2 years and him walking would be catastrophic for them. Soooooo good luck with Dubas fella

A. Crosby decliens.
B. even hypothetically we go forward on this. It starts at Matthews because that's the best you have that is even comparable in any way shape or form.

He's already stated he's going to end his career as a penguin. It's not really a question. Him, Malkin, Letang all agreed to end together. That isn't going to change.

Don’t you have an all too familiar 1st round loss to worry about? Typical Leafs fan throwing stones from a glass house. Amusing really.

Also, I know this isn’t a concept that you are familiar with, but Sid would never do something to hurt the betterment of the organization. If he were to want out, which he never will, he would inform us so that we could get the best possible return for him. Meanwhile, your stars are bickering on the bench, bickering about who can make a higher percentage of the team’s salary cap, and bickering about who is better bffs with Bieber, as they get thumped in round 1 yet again. Amusing.
