Description

I’m a penguins fan, but I live in Windsor and watched Vilardi play for the Spits. He seems to have fallen out of favour by management and their is no clear spot for him to play on this team. Kopitar-Danault-Byfield-Lizzote seems to be kinda locked in as your 4 Cs. This is kinda similar to POJs situation, where Pitt has a ton of dmen and it is hard to see how POJ fits into the plan. It has been out here that GMRH does not like him as much as GMJR.

I know some people will say “we don’t need POJ, edler or bjornfoot could play that role” but to that I say there isn’t room for Vilardi either. This makes sense as it is two teams swapping former first rounders who still have potential but haven’t quite lived up to expectations, both are going to a team where they have higher chances of cracking the lineup and getting away from management groups that seem to not like them that much.

I think that this is an eminently possible exchange, whether or not the draft pick is included or varied. We might find out later that the only thing that prevented it was the fact that Joseph isn't waivers-exempt (neither is Jacob Moverare).

Two of the major issues we will face in training camp are whether Turcotte and Vilardi make the team and how the left side of our defense shakes out. This trade would affect both.

I did consider the fact that POJ is not waivers exempt and that definitely is a notable factor. Not sure if it would be the deal breaker or not
