Andersen isn't better than Jarry, and it makes no sense for Pittsburgh to trade a younger more valuable goalie for a rental who is just as good as their starter.

Pens need a faster 3C than jumbo joe, even though I love him. Rutherford said this team will get younger. Thornton isn’t an example of that. Same with Bogo. Pass on both of them.

The trades are all good with me though

I’d also do Kap for Murray as discussed and Leafs can trade Freddy elsewhere

I really do not get these Murray/Andersen swaps. Andersen's value will be lower because he is a UFA the following summer and we are in another goalie debacle. Thats also $5M against the cap where it can be used elsewhere.

Toronto would never take the deal. Anderson is a solid goalie and has held a starting job for two different teams. He would be even better if Toronto had a mediocre defense. I don't think Murray is even worth 1-1 with Anderson right now and I am a Pens fan.

Id argue that Freddie was the most valuable player to the Leafs this postseason.
Small Sample Size but 1.84 GAA, with a 0.936 SV% was excellent
Even smaller sample size Murray's 2.5GAA and 0.914SV% is worse than Andersen's (and his regular season was worse than Andersen's, but considering his dad passed away, we could consider it a wash)

I also think it's too early to start the Jarry > Andersen theories. He had a good season in a contract year.

Kings pretty easily decline that trade. They have no use for Simon, and it's going to cost more than a 3rd to get them to take on Johnson's contract. I honestly don't think they'd take it even if you offered a 1st.

Would Penguins trade McCann and Murray for PoolParty and ATHANASIOU ? something like that maybe add Benning to help RHD

I’d rather not tbh. poolparty is a major question mark. I don’t value him that high. AA is a nice piece but once again he’s a left shot forward and we need a right shot forward
