Its difficult at best because PIT just gave up a 3rd for a 32 yr old quality guy making 5mil, but then Vegas signs a marginally better, but younger player for 5mil. And then probably means Penguins are walking away from a similar aged player in Zucker, who has similar/slightly better production and might have been slightly cheaper.
Seems to me, PITTS would have been better off not taking the older guy and either re-signing zucker for slightly less or going for Barbarshev, if VGS couldnt move Reilly.
Just seems to be a poor move in conjuntion with the other happenings with PITTS losing a pick and getting older
