Description
Short contracts for Beau Bennett and Brian Dumoulin as RFA's as they try and secure steady NHL spots with the Pens, longer term deal for Ian Cole as an RFA. Viktor Tikhonov signs for 2-3 years and provides scoring depth as the Pens try the '4 scoring line' approach and Andrej Sekera gets 2 years to cash in while also playing for a contender and looking good for his next pay day. Sergei Plotnikov signs a 1 year, $925,000 deal as an ELC. Chris Kunitz will be traded to a team with a need for a LW (I choose Anaheim because they are likely losing Beleskey and Kunitz could be a smarter version of Maroon and produce more with Getzlaf and Perry; they also have a load of 3rd RD picks, cap space and a deep prospect pool). Brandon Sutter is moved for Jiri Hudler and a 2nd RD pick, as is rumored. Scott Harrington goes to Columbus, who needs defense, with a pick for Kerby Rychel (though it is rumored the Jackets may send a package including Rychel to Arizona for the 3rd pick to get Noah Hanifin). Rob Scuderi could be bought out, or traded to a team that could use a bottom pairing defenseman and has cap room (No, Arizona is not going to take everyone's 'garbage,' so to say. It's a hard maybe.) Nick Spaling and Ben Lovejoy could be potential trade deadline pieces as well as Beau Bennett if he doesn't pick up his game, or if Rychel and Kapanen can surpass him. Kerby Rychel, Bryan Rust, Kasperi Kapanen, Scott Wilson and Oskar Sundqvist should all get some NHL time throughout the year and we could see a possible Bobby Farnham appearance if needed. I'd also like to see Connor Sheary sign and continue to develop in WBS.

    I would've given it a 5 star if you traded Scuderi instead of buying him out
