Fixing the Pens

Created by: cnb17
Team: 2020-21 Pittsburgh Penguins
Initial Creation Date: Sep. 18, 2020
Published: Sep. 18, 2020
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
I believe the only thing the GMJR needs to do is move Murray for anything you can get. And get Hornqvist and JJ off the roster by any means necessary. That should free enough cap to make a couple signings that might improve the team.

We need a contract extension in place prior to that trade. However, because Murray may be looking for a long term deal Chicago is not an ideal partner as we cannot commit to such a deal this offseason.

Matt Murray will get at least 4 x $4.5m and the Hawks will resign Corey Crawford for 1 x $3.5m. So i doubt the Hawks trade for Murray.

In order to get rid of Hornqvist and Johnson, it'll mean giving up assets to sweeten the deal. It won't mean getting assets back. Whether they go to Ottawa or another team, they'll be going with prospects or picks. Very simple. Nobody wants bad deals and so nobody's going to be giving up anywhere close to a 3rd for them.

Also Ottawa has very little problem hitting the floor as is. They have Chabot's new deal kicking in, and they have to sign a couple of guys like Anthony Duclair, Chris Tierney and Connor Brown. They're sitting at $42M right now, so they only need $20M and they only have 4F, 4D and 2G signed. They'll also take players that have vastly lower salaries than their hits, and Johnson makes $3M compared to his $3.25M this year (so negligible, although next year is a bit larger) while Hornqvist makes the same as his hit (and has a NTC so it's not happening).
