Perreault isn't a 3C, he's a top 6 player that drives possession like a mad man. You'll have to throw in a lot more than a 3rd liner to get him.

He can play C as well, I think. What would you like to have added in that trade?

What need to be changed in that BUF trade? I don't expect BUF giving up Kane with any cheaper deal if they must take a bad contract in the trade as well.

Have you watched the last 10 or so Pens games? Hagelin has been great along side Geno-Hornqvist. I wouldn’t include ZAR, either. If Kane was signed, I’d include ZAR, but not as a rental.

More like Rowney+1st+Bjorkvist+2nd

No, I haven't watched. Just checking the stats, which haven't been that good: 4+10=14 in 50 games, and +/- is 0. Sure, it doesn't tell the whole truth, but I have to count on stats when I don't really watch Pens games.

And I'm pretty sure BUF wouldn't accept that.

I said the LAST 10 GAMES. Not the whole damn season. Counting on stats isn’t a good thing, especially just points and +/- laugh

Oh yeah, good point laugh

Points do tell something, but of course it doesn't tell the whole truth. I give credit to your opinion, though.

Perreault is a center, he just isn’t playing it this year because he is a top 6 and the jets have a decent amount of center depth. Actually a solid center too which just goes to show how good wpg centers are

The only way this trade makes sense for the pens is to get out of the Hagelin contract for next year so we can re-sign Hornqvist. It’s a bit too much for Kane imo

I wouldn’t give sheery for him lol. Sheery this year is struggling but last year led the NHL in Even strength PPG. I’ll gladly keep him

Lowry is their 3C, don’t believe that his worthy of “how good”

Perreault hasn’t played center in years. I wouldn’t take the risk .

Lowry wins face offs at a 52-54% clip this year.
Perrault has a career % of 50.5%. Schiefle, Little, Lowry down the middle is solid.
In this trade scenario, I’d take it and run.

That's easy to do when you play with Crosby haha away from him he's quiet. I'll take Perrault all day every day over Sheary (unless Crosby comes with him).

Yikes... I can see the pens hate bias... sheary is younger and has much more upside. While Perrault I admit is a good player, there’s no way I’d trade sheary for him. He’s struggling this season but i can see him being a 50/60 point player for majority of his career

I do hate the Pens haha but I don't think I'm bias. But we'll see about Sheary!

These trades need a bit work. Perreault has been good this season, not expecting WPG would give him up just for Sheary.

Rieder hasn't been really that good this season. He is decent winger, but that might be an overpayment.

And that BUF trade is the literal definition of overpayment, but since I don't think BUF would sell Kane with any less, it's not too far off.

Solid 3 stars. It is not great, but not that bad either.

Hey stats are stats. Can't argue the numbers. No idea how he's rocking a .942sv% right now but it's going to be rough for VGK when that comes crashing down.
