Pittsburgh isn’t dealing a fourth to move DeSmith, lol.

he's a good back up, they don't need to pay to move him.

A 7th in return from VAN will be just fine.

Doesn't matter if he is good, Dubas backed himself into a corner by making moves beyond the cap without any waiver exempt players or LTIR options. They can't send down either Nedj or DeSmith as it won't get them below the cap. I mean, sure buyout Granlund and pay the penalty for four years if you'd like.

nah, we aren't paying you a 4th round pick to take a backup, they're aware of where they stand with cap and know what they're doing. You can take deSmith for a 7th coming to pittsburgh

Lol, good thing Dubas has three months to work it out. The Pens just fired the dullard who’d make a panic move like that. Dubas’ sights are set on moving a much bigger contract and I wouldn’t be surprised if they carry three goalies this season. Zero percent chance that deal happens. Pens decline.
