We need scoring and toffoli is one so id like to keep him but I would do Pearson, Muzzzin and a wnd for kessel and without hundwick because his cap isn't good for us because we need to sign Doughty and we don't have cap as of now

I dont think you get Kessel without taking Hunwick... for pens cap reasons

I think it wouldn't be hard for you guys to try to find a trade partner for someone else for hunwick. Like CAR, ARZ etc

No one is going to straight up trade for hunwick. The Penguins were desperate for defense last year and he was riding pine. All you need to know.
Jamie O is left handed he can't play R defense. If the Penguins get help on the blue line it's a R handed defenseman.
And the Pens aren't trading Kessel. you don't trade players who score top 10 in league who come with a cap hit of 6.8 mil when you are trying to win cups.

Oleksiak does play RD.
You can say the Penguins aren’t trading Kessel, but where’s your evidence. Literally every insider has confirmed that Kessel could be getting traded.

Lol it’s like you don’t know anything

The big rig is L handed. If you want to see him struggle all year you put him on the right side.
This isn't rocket science. If you played hockey you would under stand. R handed people play R side, L handed people play L side. Just look at the roaster. Letang and shults R side R handed. Dumo, Matta, Big rig all L handed Play the left side. Not sure how you get he plays the right side. That's not even remotely true. Do you watch the games?

By the way the media hates Phil. Haven't you figured that out by now . They are the same people who ragged a story how he was a cancer, not true. Eats hot dogs all the time, not true, is lazy, not true.
I mean really, do you want to keep believing everything they say. He was suppose to be traded last year too, but look he put up 92 points. It's called click bait season. get over it.

Kessel's NTC makes him difficult to trade if he wants to go, and practically impossible if he doesn't. There is no realistic way to expect even fair value when trading Kessel, let alone a win. He's the 3rd best player on the team and still consistently elite for his position, so unless you're getting at least equal returns trading Phil effectively closes the window on the Crosby/Malkin era. If some perfect storm comes along and whichever of the 8 teams Kessel allows himself to go to has a GM on acid, maybe the team can improve by trading a 92 point player. Don't hold your breath.

Left handed people can play on the right side. Hence why not all RW are righty and not all left wings are lefty. Same applies on defense.
Examples. Alec Martinez in LA lefty plays rightside, Sami Vatanen Righty plays left side. Trevor Daley lefty also plays right side.
Oleksiak played the right side in Dallas and that versatility is one of the reasons the Pens traded for him. Most defenseman don't like playing on their off side but some prefer it.

I don't think the trade is bad at all and would be a decent haul for the pens but I don't think LA would have to give up two draft picks if they are taking hunwick. A top 4 d and a young top 6 wing for kessel and hunwick isn't bad by itself. If you want the draft picks Tanner Pearson probably instead of Toffoli
The cap may get tricky after next season though with this move
