Personally I love it. Zucker and Granlund had their best seasons playing together and the Pens can afford him as a rental. I don't think they would even have to give up a prospect depending on Nashville's position. They are only 2 games out of the WC with quite a few games in hand, so I can see them sticking with Granlund, but boy would it be sweet to have crosby center him and Zucker

You have the chemistry of Zucker and Granlund, you have the puck support skill set that Simon brings to the table but then you add in the scoring that Granlund has demonstrated in his career. His hockey IQ is up there as feel. I feel like he would be a tremendous fit. I think the Preds would want to get something a bit more than just a pick out of him since they did ship out Fiala for him, who they had contract control over, but who knows.

Interesting offer. I'm not especially high on Hallander, but I think he has potential - I'd maybe want a 2nd instead of the 3rd - maybe turns into a conditional 1st if Granlund resigns or NSH also gets another pick next year. However, I don't think the Preds will make a decision on their UFAs until right up to the deadline, so not sure if they even trade Granlund since he is playing very well right now. The Granlund/Zucker connection could be interesting for PIT and that may mean that they would be willing to overpay a bit to get it - who knows.

I suppose the pick could be made to a 2nd, conditional 1st if he resigns but the chances of that are fairly slim. He could have to excel, which would likely mean getting paid at his current level or better, which the Penguins wouldn't be able to afford. So it would essentially be a 2nd round pick. Prospect probably gets lower as Hallander is likely the 3rd best regarded offensive prospect in the Penguins system. Granlund fits that age range the Penguins could get the most use out of in the Crosby/Malkin era, but the move-out requirements would be pretty heavy.

Maybe performance-based condition as opposed to a re-signing condition then. But I think that you're right though on your initial thoughts of what Poile would want out of a Granlund trade considering he gave up Fiala to get him. I have the feeling that if he doesn't see something he likes then he will just sit on Granlund and try to sign him in the off-season. That would be a big miss for Poile if he doesn't either re-sign Granlund or get a good return for him in a trade. Luckily Granlund is playing much better since Hynes has been head coach, so maybe that is upping his trade value.

It's not unheard of to go back to a team who traded you at a deadline, especially in a situation like this. Penguins explain they simply don't have the cap room and Poile leaves the door open on the way out. You're right though, sitting on him to miss the playoffs only to have him test free agency would be a big miss especially if he is peaking towards the end of the year. Plenty of the teams have cap and will be looking for scoring.
