Pen's have a snowball's chance in hell of Rust signing for 2.25M. Probably not worth 3M but that's most likely what he will get paid.

I think that is a lot for Kessel especially when you are throwing in Sheary. A younger top 6 fw a young top 4 d, a good prospect, and 1st , 3rd picks. But I guess an offer like that is what it would take for the Pens to part with kessel. Honestly I'd be happy if anaheim just gave a 2nd round instead of 1st and 3rd. but it isn't a bad deal at all. Definitely makes the ducks more competitive next year and gives the pens more depth.

Can't say I like the neal or Kunitz signings. Neal's lack of work ethic will not go well with Sullivan and we don't want that drama again. Kunitz is slow. Better options internally for a 4th line wing and would rather have ZAR in the lineup full time.
