I love the idea of getting Cernak, but the ask is way more, even with the cap dump of Johnson. What about Joulevi, Woo & 2nd 2021 for Cernak, Johnson (500,000 retained), and 4th 2022. This way Van gets the solid right dman they need, and TB with Foote, Joulevi and Woo right behind they dont skip a beat.
Love the idea of grabbing local boy Jarry for Vancouver, but if Canucks get another Petterson they should target Emil.
The Pittsburgh trade should look more like Schmidt, Dipietro for Jarry, Jesper Lindgren & a 2022 4th.
I still don’t know what the Pens would do with Nate Schmidt’s contract. But that’s way more realistic offer.
The trade would have involve Pettersson too. But the Pens would rather have Pettersson than Schmidt. I would almost guarantee that.
They might prefer DiPietro over Jarry. B/c IMO, the cap relief would swing the trade for the Pens to take DiPietro over Jarry.
But if u add in Schmidt. I don’t know. No cap relief then. You are adding more salary and would still need to sign a goalie.
I think the Pens would trade Jarry for DiPietro straight up.
Imo, they jump on that deal and sign a vet FA goalie and have DeSmith and DiPietro as back-ups.
