Team: 2020-21 Pittsburgh Penguins

Initial Creation Date: Oct. 21, 2020

Published: Oct. 21, 2020

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

According to Eklund, Chara and PIT have mutual interest. I can see the Pens moving one of Dumoulin or Pettersson, most likely Pettersson. Maybe they put Chara with Marino like BOS did with McAvoy until Matheson gets used to this system.

I wonder if Eklund has ever been right.

This would not be a good combo. PIT runs and guns. Chara hasn't moved well since 2011. Yes he's big. Yes he's physical. Yes he'll be cheap, but he doesn't fit what they do at all.

Can't see Pitt moving Doumolin any time soon. Especially to make room for a 40+ year old......

God, if they move Pettersson and replace him with Matheson, Ceci and Chara, I'm going to lose my mind on behalf of Pens fans, who I'm sure will lose their own minds

Ottawa declines Tierney and Brown are better than Petterson and Riikola

I dont think Ottawa accept this. Pettersson isn't worth Tierney + Brown

Eklund say what he think in his mind... Not what he knows around the league.
