I've heard they want top 6 scoring more than a goalie

precisely. and they can draft Askarov then sign a stopgap like Holtby in free agency. Ta dah

pens probably don't trade Murray to Carolina or any Metro team

over pay by pens bean has promise but he is pretty much a throw in also he 10th on depth chart at D geekie is to big of a spare part throw in ..1st off carolina unless they can trade one or both reimer mzarek .... 6.5 mil tied up in those 2.. next yr and then both done.. this trade does them no good they do need to consider who is future goalie but they need top 6 and their cap is not really an issue 32m they can dump off either sign lehner or holtby draft askarov work a trade D for top 6 F resign players that need it and still have some cap space left . if they see murray as the future they want.
if im the pens take out the pick and push bjugstad into the trade .. murray and a dump for 2 prospects. definate nope on this one ...
