I'm a pens fan and I'm very high on Matt Murray. This would be highway robbery for the pens. Bjugstad is never playing and riikola is barely an nhl player. The only way I see a package like this working isnif lucic also comes back, and the pens have no cap space to do so.

@Yojimbo They need a long term answer in net. It wasn't too long ago that Murray and Vasilevsky were the two best young G in the league. Calgary is also loosing a bunch of D to FA and actually need to fill out their blue line. I added Riikola as a sweetener but it addresses a need for them.

But you're right they probably don't move Gaudreau for anybody and we probably don't move Murray for anybody.

@LetsGoPens29 I wouldn't say highway robbery. CGY needs a long term answer in net and Matt Murray is a young RFA with two Cups who they could sign for a long time. Unless they retained more than half of Lucic's salary we would never do that. The thing is, this addresses a need for both teams, and we have Jarry still.

I do believe that Murray will be traded, I just think that it is considerably lopsided for the Pens.

Agreed. If Bjugstad wan’t injured so much and wasn’t a center, and Riikola was proven and was worth a little more, then yes.

I just think that the only asset with considerable gaudreau value is Murray. I'd say Murray, poulin/legarre and a pick would be more fair if you could get the cap to work.

@LetsGoPens29 Well Riikola has legit NHL minutes and could slot into a bottom pairing role there no problem. CGY is a win now team so I took that into consideration; they would most likely want legit roster players as opposed to futures.

Bjugstad, while clearly injured a bunch this past season, is also a legit NHL player, even if he is a little bit underwhelming when you look at his numbers. He would also be on an expiring deal. Looking back at this trade I would say we might have to retain a little of salary to move Byoogs at this point, just because he's been so injured, but before that, we could have gotten a 2/3 rd pick for him no problem.

Should have moved him before the season but Rutherford didn't shop him enough. That was a mistake. Granted, I also thought they should have looked into trading Rust before the season, so hindsight is assuredly 20/20.

I'm high on riikola and I know Bjugstad had been injured but I just don't see the value outside of Murray. Maybe if they added in a second or a lesser prospect I'd be more comfortable with it.

@LetsGoPens29 I feel you on that. Like I said it's hard to evaluate Bjugstad at this point in his career, although so far he has played pretty dece when healthy. He's also a very big boy.

But I'd be completely comfortable with them including guys like Simon or Lafferty with NHL experience.

But if you're saying you think they'd want a future over an NHLer I might have to disagree with you there.
