Malkin may be struggling but I still wouldn’t do this. He can turn it on so quick. If we’re gonna move malkin, it should be to start a rebuild. We’d want futures back

It's interesting I was just thinking about this exact swap earlier today... I don't know if I'd do it if I'm SJ but I tend to think I would mostly since Malkin's contract is up in 2 yrs. And with the current context of SJ's plethora of long-term contracts, as well as the fact that they've been really struggling anyways, it warrants the deal.

It makes sense for PIT too -- Couture's still a beast and 3yrs younger, undoubtedly much better than Malkin at this point and probably for the foreseeable future. The drawback is those last few seasons.

Malkin was over PPG just a season ago. He's 34, not 44. I still think he's a very valuable asset.

Couture has never had a PPG season in his career. He's a valuable asset, but I think Malkin might be worth more.

Couture might be playing a little better over the last 10ish games. You're going to ignore the hundreds of games before that? It isn't like I'm asking you to go back five seasons...just over the last two seasons Malkin has been a superstar in terms of production.
